Genome-wide identification of DNA methylation QTLs in whole blood highlights pathways for cardiovascular disease

Differentially methylated CpGs can inform on disease mechanisms and be useful as biomarkers. Here, the authors perform GWAS for DNA methylation in whole blood, cis- and trans-meQTL mapping, followed by Mendelian randomization analysis that links meQTLs with cardiovascular diseases.
