Diverse methodological and statistical approaches for investigating the role of gene-environment interactions in a range of complex diseases and traits.
Findings from the Human Genome Project and from Genome-Wide Association (GWA) studies indicate that many diseases and traits manifest a more complex genomic pattern than previously assumed. These findings, and advances in high-throughput sequencing, suggest that there are many sources of influence-genetic, epigenetic, and environmental. This volume investigates the role of the interactions of genes and environment (G x E) in diseases and traits (referred to by the contributors as complex phenotypes) including depression, diabetes, obesity, and substance use.
The contributors first present different statistical approaches or strategies to address G x E and G x G interactions with high-throughput sequenced data, including two-stage procedures to identify G x E and G x G interactions, marker-set approaches to assessing interactions at the gene level, and the use of a partial-least square (PLS) approach. The contributors then turn to specific complex phenotypes, research designs, or combined methods that may advance the study of G x E interactions, considering such topics as randomized clinical trials in obesity research, longitudinal research designs and statistical models, and the development of polygenic scores to investigate G x E interactions.
