Testing and controlling for horizontal pleiotropy with probabilistic Mendelian randomization in transcriptome-wide association studies

Transcriptome-wide association studies integrate GWAS and transcriptome data to examine the molecular mechanisms underlying disease etiology. Here the authors present PMR-Egger, a powerful TWAS method based on probabilistic Mendelian Randomization.
