  • Larger cerebral cortex is genetically correlated with greater frontal area and dorsal thickness - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36893272

    ABSTRACT: Significance Adjusting vs. retaining global measures in analysis of brain MRI data has been a long-standing question and can have important implications for genomic studies of the cortex. Adjusting for global measures ensures that results for regions of interest are not confounded by overall larger brain size. However, adjusting for globals may throw away important signal when total and regional measures are correlated. We show that retaining vs. adjusting for global brain measures in genomic studies impacts gene discovery, particularly for fronto-parietal cortex. Understanding the genetic factors that contribute to expanded association areas in the human brain, such as the prefrontal cortex, can help provide mechanistic insight into higher human cognition and its unique developm

  • A genetic map of human metabolism across the allele frequency spectrum - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41044249

    ABSTRACT: Genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and allelic breadth. Here we provide a data-driven map of the genetic regulation of circulating small molecules and lipoprotein characteristics (249 traits) measured using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy across the allele frequency spectrum in ~450,000 individuals. Trans-ancestral meta-analyses identify 29,824 locus-metabolite associations mapping to 753 regions with effects largely consistent between men and women and large ancestral groups represented in UK Biobank. We observe and classify extreme genetic pleiotropy, identify regulators of lipid metabolism, and assign effector genes at >100 loci through rare-to-common allelic series. We propose roles for genes less established in metabolic control (
