  • Deciphering tissue-specific protein regulation for insights into cardiometabolic disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41456820

    ABSTRACT: Understanding tissue-specific mechanisms of protein regulation gives crucial insights into cardiometabolic disease and informs drug discovery. Most proteomic studies have primarily concentrated on plasma, overlooking tissue-specific effects. Utilizing Olink technology, we assessed relative protein levels across plasma and tissue (aortic wall, mammary artery, liver, and skeletal muscle) from the STARNET cohort: 284 individuals with a high prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD). We identified 608 cis protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs), primarily in plasma, reflecting greater protein variability. Of 190 proteins with cis-pQTLs in non-plasma tissues, 50% also had plasma pQTLs, validating Olink technology in these tissues while reinforcing the relevance of plasma data for un

  • A genome-wide association study identifies risk loci for spirometric measures among smokers of European and African ancestry - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 26634245

    ABSTRACT: Background Pulmonary function decline is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality among smokers. Post bronchodilator FEV1 and FEV1/FVC ratio are considered the standard assessment of airflow obstruction. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 9919 current and former smokers in the COPDGene study (6659 non-Hispanic Whites [NHW] and 3260 African Americans [AA]) to identify associations with spirometric measures (post-bronchodilator FEV1 and FEV1/FVC). We also conducted meta-analysis of FEV1 and FEV1/FVC GWAS in the COPDGene, ECLIPSE, and GenKOLS cohorts (total n = 13,532). Results Among NHW in the COPDGene cohort, both measures of pulmonary function were significantly associated with SNPs at the 15q25 locus [containing CHRNA3/5, AGPHD1, IREB2, CHRNB4] (low
