  • Genetic basis of pregnancy-associated decreased platelet counts and gestational thrombocytopenia∗ - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38064665

    ABSTRACT: Key Points PEAR1 and CBL variants demonstrate time-specific genetic influences on platelet count throughout the course of pregnancy. PEAR1 and TUBB1 variants play a major role in contributing to the genetic predisposition for GT and severe GT. Visual Abstract Abstract Platelet count reduction occurs throughout pregnancy, with 5% to 12% of pregnant women being diagnosed with gestational thrombocytopenia (GT), characterized by a more marked decrease in platelet count during pregnancy. However, the underlying biological mechanism behind these phenomena remains unclear. Here, we used sequencing data from noninvasive prenatal testing of 100 186 Chinese pregnant individuals and conducted, to our knowledge, the hitherto largest-scale genome-wide association studies on platelet counts

  • Genomics and phenomics of body mass index reveals a complex disease network - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36581621

    ABSTRACT: Elevated body mass index (BMI) is heritable and associated with many health conditions that impact morbidity and mortality. The study of the genetic association of BMI across a broad range of common disease conditions offers the opportunity to extend current knowledge regarding the breadth and depth of adiposity-related diseases. We identify 906 (364 novel) and 41 (6 novel) genome-wide significant loci for BMI among participants of European (N~1.1 million) and African (N~100,000) ancestry, respectively. Using a BMI genetic risk score including 2446 variants, 316 diagnoses are associated in the Million Veteran Program, with 96.5% showing increased risk. A co-morbidity network analysis reveals seven disease communities containing multiple interconnected diseases associated with BMI
