Epigenome-Wide Association Studies (EWAS) in Cancer
After completion of the human genome, genome-wide association studies were conducted to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with cancer initiation and progression. Most of the studies identified SNPs that were located outside the coding region, and the odds ratios were too low to implement in clinical practice. Although the genome gives information about genome sequence a...
متن کاملEWAS: epigenome-wide association studies software 1.0 – identifying the association between combinations of methylation levels and diseases
Similar to the SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) data, there is non-random association of the DNA methylation level (we call it methylation disequilibrium, MD) between neighboring methylation loci. For the case-control study of complex diseases, it is important to identify the association between methylation levels combination types (we call it methylecomtype) and diseases/phenotypes. We ext...
متن کاملEpigenome-wide Association Studies and the Interpretation of Disease -Omics
Epigenome-wide association studies represent one means of applying genome-wide assays to identify molecular events that could be associated with human phenotypes. The epigenome is especially intriguing as a target for study, as epigenetic regulatory processes are, by definition, heritable from parent to daughter cells and are found to have transcriptional regulatory properties. As such, the epi...
متن کاملEstimation of a significance threshold for epigenome‐wide association studies
Epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) are designed to characterise population-level epigenetic differences across the genome and link them to disease. Most commonly, they assess DNA-methylation status at cytosine-guanine dinucleotide (CpG) sites, using platforms such as the Illumina 450k array that profile a subset of CpGs genome wide. An important challenge in the context of EWAS is determ...
