IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a common form of immune-mediated glomerulonephritis characterized by glomerular deposition of IgA-containing immune complexes and manifesting with hematuria, proteinuria, and often kidney failure. This dataset is from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) designed to identify novel genetic risk loci for IgAN. In this dataset, seven cohorts were genotyped by Illumina Multi-Ethnic Global Array, consisting of 3,337 IgAN cases and 2,177 healthy controls of European and East Asian ancestries. Three of the provided cohorts were genotyped by Illumina HumanImmuno Chip, which are composed of 2007 cases of IgAN of European ancestry. These cohorts were used in the GWAS meta-analysis, as described in the manuscript entitled "GWAS defines pathogenic signaling pathways and prioritizes drug targets for IgA nephropathy" (Nature Genetics 2022, in press).
This study aims to identify diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in colon cancer and to study understand the complex genomic, genetic and epigenetic relationships with a multiomic approach. The study includes tumor and paired normal mucosa of 100 colon cancer patients diagnosed at stage II, untreated and with microsatellite stable tumours. Also 50 normal mucosa samples from healthy donors are included as reference. The samples have been analysed for gene expression with Affymetrix U219 array (available at GEO GSE44076), SNP/CNV with the Affymetrix 6.0 Human SNP array, for DNA methylation with the Illumina 450K array. Small RNAs were sequenced with the Solid technology and 42 of the tumours and paired normal mucosa DNA were whole exome sequenced with Illumina Genome Analyzer.
