摘要

Musunuru, Brown, Rader, and colleagues of the NHLBI NextGen consortium use multi-ethnic population cohorts of iPSCs and differentiated hepatocyte-like cells, in combination with mouse models, to discover and validate functional DNA variants and genes at blood lipid-associated loci previously identified by genome-wide association studies.
