Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS)
Major Steps in a GWAS:
1. Collect samples - Case vs Control e.g. 3000 patients vs 3000
controls
2. SNP Genotyping: Whole genome SNP microarray
3. Statistical Analysis
4. Replication
3
Goal is to rapidly scan various markers (SNPs) across the genome
and find associations between genetic variations and clinical
conditions
GWAS has identified a number of different SNPs associated with disesase. No individual chromosome is spared. There are a number of
confounding variables that can affect disease perception you might not have but GWAS type studies kind of point to the fact that you do, if you dont
watch out for confounding variable. mutations that you find in individuals gametes (the ones going through IBF) you need to know and be aware of
the mothers body condition and genetic makeup. The frequency of some SNPs are very low, so you need alot of data samples (people) to be fully
aware of a rare SNPs effects.
in an another external cohort of samples, so that its not something specfiic to the sample you chose earlier.
Its possible that a specific disease may be due to racial background, or spatial orientation.
