Lymphocyte activation gene-3-associated protein networks are associated with HDL-cholesterol and mortality in the Trans-omics for Precision Medicine program

Rodriguez et al. use whole genome sequencing and plasma proteomics from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) and the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) cohorts of the Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine program and perform in situ Hi-C chromatin capture in cell lines isolated from four MESA participants. They demonstrate that lymphocyte activation gene-3 protein networks are associated with HDL-cholesterol and mortality, which could guide the development of precision medicine.
