相关个体的基于家族的遗传关联研究提供了检测遗传变异的机会，补充了无关个体的研究。大多数用于常见变异的家族关联研究的统计方法都是基于单标记的，每次测试一个SNP。在本文中，我们考虑测试SNP集的效果，例如，在家族研究中，基因中的SNPs，用于连续和离散性状。具体来说，我们提出了一个广义估计方程（GEE）为基础的内核关联测试，方差分量为基础的测试方法，测试表型和多个变异之间的关联，在SNP集联合使用家庭样本。所提出的方法允许连续和离散性状，其中家庭成员之间的相关性考虑到通过使用经验协方差估计。我们推导出了零值下的统计量的理论分布，并开发了计算p值的分析方法。我们还提出了一个有效的修正方法，用于家庭研究中的小样本量偏倚。所提出的方法允许容易地合并协变量和SNP-SNP相互作用。仿真研究表明，所提出的方法适当控制的I型错误率在家庭研究的随机和确定的抽样方案。我们通过模拟研究表明，我们的方法具有上级性能的关联映射相比，单标记为基础的最小p值GEE测试的SNP集的影响在一系列的场景。我们说明了应用所提出的方法使用的数据从克利夫兰家庭GWAS研究。
Family-based genetic association studies of related individuals provide opportunities to detect genetic variants that complement studies of unrelated individuals. Most statistical methods for family association studies for common variants are single-marker-based, which test one SNP a time. In this paper, we consider testing the effect of a SNP set, e.g., SNPs in a gene, in family studies, for both continuous and discrete traits. Specifically, we propose a Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE)-based kernel association test, a variance component-based testing method, to test for the association between a phenotype and multiple variants in a SNP set jointly using family samples. The proposed approach allows for both continuous and discrete traits, where the correlation among family members is taken into account through the use of an empirical covariance estimator. We derive the theoretical distribution of the proposed statistic under the null and develop analytical methods to calculate the p-values. We also propose an efficient resampling method for correcting for small sample size bias in family studies. The proposed method allows for easily incorporating covariates and SNP-SNP interactions. Simulation studies show that the proposed method properly controls for type-I error rates under both random and ascertained sampling schemes in family studies. We demonstrate through simulation studies that our approach has superior performance for association mapping compared to the single marker based minimum p-value GEE test for a SNP set effect over a range of scenarios. We illustrate the application of the proposed method using data from the Cleveland Family GWAS Study.
