Whole Genome Association for Early Coronary Artery Disease and Related Phenotypes
Among the Atherosclerotic Disease, Vascular Function, and Genetic Epidemiology (ADVANCE) cohorts that enrolled cases of coronary disease and disease-free controls across a broad age spectrum, we propose to conduct a whole genome association study on 1,040 subjects followed by a second stage of focused genotyping on a separate sample of 2,093 subjects, as well as replication of the most significant findings with collaborating external investigators.
