  • Genome-wide analysis of heart failure yields insights into disease heterogeneity and enables prognostic prediction in the Japanese population - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41184235

    ABSTRACT: To understand the genetic basis of heart failure (HF) in the Japanese population, we performed genome-wide association studies (GWASs) comprising 16,251 all-cause HF cases, 4254 HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) cases, 7154 HF with preserved ejection fraction cases, and 11,122 non-ischemic HF cases among 213,828 individuals and identified five novel loci. A subsequent cross-ancestry meta-analysis and multi-trait analysis of the GWAS data identified 19 novel loci in total, with 31 out of the 76 genome-wide significant loci associated with HFrEF despite its smaller sample size. Among these susceptibility loci, a common non-coding variant in TTN (rs1484116) was associated with reduced cardiac function and worse long-term mortality. We leveraged the HF meta-GWASs along with c

  • Combining cross-sectional and longitudinal genomic approaches to identify determinants of cognitive and physical decline - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40374629

    ABSTRACT: Large-scale genomic studies focusing on the genetic contribution to human aging have mostly relied on cross-sectional data. With the release of longitudinally curated aging phenotypes by the UK Biobank (UKBB), it is now possible to study aging over time at genome-wide scale. In this work, we evaluated the suitability of competing models of change in realistic simulation settings, performed genome-wide association scans on simulation-validated measures of age-related deweekcline, and followed up with LD-score regression and Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses. Focusing on global cognitive and physical function, we observed marked differences between baseline function (θ) and accelerated decline (Δ). Both outcomes showed distinct heritability levels (e.g., 31.38% versus 3.15%

  • Common genetic variants and modifiable risk factors underpin hypertrophic cardiomyopathy susceptibility and expressivity - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33495597

    ABSTRACT: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common, serious, genetic heart disorder. Rare pathogenic variants in sarcomere genes cause HCM, but with unexplained phenotypic heterogeneity. Moreover, most patients do not carry such variants. We report a genome-wide association study of 2,780 cases and 47,486 controls that identified 12 genome-wide-significant susceptibility loci for HCM. Single-nucleotide polymorphism heritability indicated a strong polygenic influence, especially for sarcomere-negative HCM (64% of cases; h2g = 0.34 ± 0.02). A genetic risk score showed substantial influence on the odds of HCM in a validation study, halving the odds in the lowest quintile and doubling them in the highest quintile, and also influenced phenotypic severity in sarcomere variant carriers. Men

  • Large-scale genome-wide association analyses identify novel genetic loci and mechanisms in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39966646

    ABSTRACT: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality with both monogenic and polygenic components. Here, we report results from a large genome-wide association study and multitrait analysis including 5,900 HCM cases, 68,359 controls and 36,083 UK Biobank participants with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. We identified 70 loci (50 novel) associated with HCM and 62 loci (20 novel) associated with relevant left ventricular traits. Among the prioritized genes in the HCM loci, we identify a novel HCM disease gene, SVIL, which encodes the actin-binding protein supervillin, showing that rare truncating SVIL variants confer a roughly tenfold increased risk of HCM. Mendelian randomization analyses support a causal role of increased left ventricular contrac
