Summary of the 3 lacunar stroke PWAS-significant genes with evidence for being consistent with a causal role in lacunar stroke
Gene | Chromosome | Discovery PWAS | Confirmation PWAS | Confirmation MR | Evidence for causality | TWAS significant | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
COLOC | |||||||
1 | ICA1L | 2 | Significant | Replicated | Replicated | Yes | Yes |
2 | CAND2* | 3 | Significant | Replicated | Replicated | Yes | N/A |
3 | ALDH2* | 12 | Significant | Replicated | Replicated | Yes | No |
N/A, refers to genes that did not have significant heritability estimates to be included in the TWAS of lacunar stroke
*New gene refers to genes not within a 1-Mb window of SNPs with P < 5.23 × 10−8 identified in Taylor et al. lacunar stroke GWAS
