Abstract Blood cells contain functionally important intracellular structures, such as granules, critical to immunity and thrombosis. Quantitative variation in these structures has not been subjected previously to large-scale genetic analysis. We perform genome-wide association studies of 63 flow-cytometry derived cellular phenotypes—including cell-type specific measures of granularity, nucleic acid content and reactivity—in 41,515 participants in the […]
