BMP8A and peripheral arterial disease: When specifically examining BMP8A gene expression for each of the BMP8A variants we often found non-reproductive tissues among the significant eQTL tissues including tissue potentially relevant in PAD such as: tibial nerve (rs3738676, P = 1.2x10-5; rs2004330, P = 5.5x10-7; rs755249, P = 3.6x10-6, rs1180341, P = 2.6x10-6; rs1180343, P = 1.3x10-6), tibial artery (rs1180341, P = 5.3x10-6), subcutaneous adipose (rs3738676, P = 3.7x10-6; rs710913, P = 1.7x10-5), and atrial appendage (rs2004330, P = 1.3x10-9).
