Data pertaining to publication: Meta-GWAS Reveals Novel Genetic Variants Associated with Urinary Excretion of Uromodulin
Uromodulin, the most abundant protein excreted in normal urine, plays major roles in kidney physiology and disease. The mechanisms regulating the urinary excretion of uromodulin remain essentially unknown. We conducted a ... -
GWAMA summary data for morning plasma cortisol from the Cortisol Network (CORNET) Consortium 2021 (n=25,314)
The stress hormone cortisol modulates fuel metabolism, cardiovascular homoeostasis, mood, inflammation and cognition. The CORtisol NETwork (CORNET) consortium previously identified a single locus associated with morning ... -

Summary statistics from epigenome-wide association studies and meta-analysis comparing APOE ε4 and APOE ε2 allele carriers in Generation Scotland
These datasets contain full summary statistics for epigenome-wide association studies (EWASs) carried out using two methylation samples from the Generation Scotland: Scottish Family Health Study to investigate associations ... -
Cornea resistance factor GWAS in the UK Biobank
Summary statistics from the genome-wide association study (GWAS) of cornea resistance factor (CRF) of 76,029 UK Biobank samples of British ancestry obtained through the application number 19655. The CRF analysis was ... -
Pervasive lesion segregation shapes cancer genome evolution
Cancers arise through the acquisition of oncogenic mutations and grow by clonal expansion. Here we reveal that most mutagenic DNA lesions are not resolved into a mutated DNA base pair within a single cell cycle. Instead, ... -
Birth weight associations with DNA methylation differences in an adult population
The Developmental Origins Health and Disease (DOHaD) theory predicts that prenatal and early life events shape adult health outcomes. Birth weight is a useful indicator of the foetal experience, and has been associated ... -
GenomeArtiFinder variant include list
Background: The loss of genetic diversity in segments over a genome (loss-of-heterozygosity, LOH) is a common occurrence in many types of cancer. By analysing patterns of preferential allelic retention during LOH in ... -
Dataset pertaining to the publication "Quantitative levels of serum N-glycans in type 1 diabetes and their association with kidney disease"
The files are comma separated and contain measurements for 46 N-glycan peaks on 1581 serum samples (corresponding to 1565 unique participants) from SDRNT1BIO and from a pool of healthy controls. N-glycan peaks are expressed ... -
