Plasma cholesterol-induced lesion networks are enriched for cardiometabolic GxE genes
Network, number of genes* | Genes shared with GxE catalog † | Genes shared with GWAS catalog ‡ | Enrichment in GxE catalog, p -value |
---|---|---|---|

Regression-reactive, 6096 | 55 | 174 | < 0.001 |
*All genes comprising each network, as described [88].
†GxE genes supporting commonly measured phenotypes and involving common environmental modifiers, n =108.
‡GWAS genes supporting associations with cardiometabolic phenotypes, n =519.
