Discovery and replication of SNP-SNP interactions for quantitative lipid traits in over 60,000 individuals

Abstract Background The genetic etiology of human lipid quantitative traits is not fully elucidated, and interactions between variants may play a role. We performed a gene-centric interaction study for four different lipid traits: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein...
