  • Genetic architecture and biology of youth-onset type 2 diabetes - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38278947

    ABSTRACT: The prevalence of youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) and childhood obesity has been rising steadily, producing a growing public health concern that disproportionately affects minority groups. The genetic basis of youth-onset T2D and its relationship to other forms of diabetes are unclear. Here we report a detailed genetic characterization of youth-onset T2D by analysing exome sequences and common variant associations for 3,005 individuals with youth-onset T2D and 9,777 adult control participants matched for ancestry, including both males and females. We identify monogenic diabetes variants in 2.4% of individuals and three exome-wide significant (P < 2.6 × 10−6) gene-level associations (HNF1A, MC4R, ATXN2L). Furthermore, we report rare variant association enrichments wit

  • Analysis across Taiwan Biobank, Biobank Japan, and UK Biobank identifies hundreds of novel loci for 36 quantitative traits - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38116116

    ABSTRACT: Summary Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified tens of thousands of genetic loci associated with human complex traits. However, the majority of GWASs were conducted in individuals of European ancestries. Failure to capture global genetic diversity has limited genomic discovery and has impeded equitable delivery of genomic knowledge to diverse populations. Here we report findings from 102,900 individuals across 36 human quantitative traits in the Taiwan Biobank (TWB), a major biobank effort that broadens the population diversity of genetic studies in East Asia. We identified 968 novel genetic loci, pinpointed novel causal variants through statistical fine-mapping, compared the genetic architecture across TWB, Biobank Japan, and UK Biobank, and evaluated the utilit
