• The genetic architecture of age at menarche and its causal effects on other traits. - Journal of human genetics (2024) · Feng GJ, Xu Q, Zhao QG, Han BX, Yan SS, Zhu J, Pei YF · PubMed 39147824

  Age at menarche (AAM) is a sign of puberty of females. It is a heritable trait associated with various adult diseases. However, the genetic mechanism that determines AAM and links it to disease risk is poorly understood. Aiming to uncover the genetic basis for AAM, we conducted a joint association study in up to 438,089 women from 3 genome-wide association studies of European and East Asian ancestries. A series of bioinformatical analyses and causal inference were then followed to explore in-depth annotations at the associated loci and infer the causal relationship between AAM and other complex traits/diseases. This largest meta-analysis identified a total of 21 novel AAM associated loci at the genome wide significance level (P < 5.0  × 10 ), 4 of which were European ancestry-spec
