  • Metabolome-wide association identifies ferredoxin-1 (FDX1) as a determinant of cholesterol metabolism and cardiovascular risk in Asian populations. - Nature cardiovascular research (2025) · Sadhu N, Dalan R, Jain PR, Lee CJM, Pakkiri LS, Tay KY, Mina TH, Low D, Min Y, Ackers-Johnson M, Thi TT, Kota VG, Shi Y, Liu Y, Yu H, Lai V, Yang Y, Tay D, Ng HK, Wang X, Wong KE, Lam M, Guan XL, Bertin N, Wong E, Best J, Sarangarajan R, Elliott P, Riboli E, Lee J, Lee ES, Ngeow J, Tan P, Cheung C, Drum CL, Foo RS, Michelotti GA, Yu H, Sheridan PA, Loh M, Chambers JC · PubMed 40360795

    The burden of cardiovascular disease is rising in the Asia-Pacific region, in contrast to falling cardiovascular disease mortality rates in Europe and North America. Here we perform quantification of 883 metabolites by untargeted mass spectroscopy in 8,124 Asian adults and investigate their relationships with carotid intima media thickness, a marker of atherosclerosis. Plasma concentrations of 3beta-hydroxy-5-cholestenoate (3BH5C), a cholesterol metabolite, were inversely associated with carotid intima media thickness, and Mendelian randomization studies supported a causal relationship between 3BH5C and coronary artery disease. The observed effect size was 5- to 6-fold higher in Asians than Europeans. Colocalization analyses indicated the presence of a shared causal variant between 3BH5C p

  • A genome-wide association analysis reveals new pathogenic pathways in gout. - Nature genetics (2024) · Major TJ, Takei R, Matsuo H, Leask MP, Sumpter NA, Topless RK, Shirai Y, Wang W, Cadzow MJ, Phipps-Green AJ, Li Z, Ji A, Merriman ME, Morice E, Kelley EE, Wei WH, McCormick SPA, Bixley MJ, Reynolds RJ, Saag KG, Fadason T, Golovina E, O'Sullivan JM, Stamp LK, Dalbeth N, Abhishek A, Doherty M, Roddy E, Jacobsson LTH, Kapetanovic MC, Melander O, Andrés M, Pérez-Ruiz F, Torres RJ, Radstake T, Jansen TL, Janssen M, Joosten LAB, Liu R, Gaal OI, Crişan TO, Rednic S, Kurreeman F, Huizinga TWJ, Toes R, Lioté F, Richette P, Bardin T, Ea HK, Pascart T, McCarthy GM, Helbert L, Stibůrková B, Tausche AK, Uhlig T, Vitart V, Boutin TS, Hayward C, Riches PL, Ralston SH, Campbell A, MacDonald TM, Nakayama A, Takada T, Nakatochi M, Shimizu S, Kawamura Y, Toyoda Y, Nakaoka H, Yamamoto K, Matsuo K, Shinomiya N, Ichida K, Lee C, Bradbury LA, Brown MA, Robinson PC, Buchanan RRC, Hill CL, Lester S, Smith MD, Rischmueller M, Choi HK, Stahl EA, Miner JN, Solomon DH, Cui J, Giacomini KM, Brackman DJ, Jorgenson EM, Liu H, Susztak K, Shringarpure S, So A, Okada Y, Li C, Shi Y, Merriman TR · PubMed 39406924

    Gout is a chronic disease that is caused by an innate immune response to deposited monosodium urate crystals in the setting of hyperuricemia. Here, we provide insights into the molecular mechanism of the poorly understood inflammatory component of gout from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 2.6 million people, including 120,295 people with prevalent gout. We detected 377 loci and 410 genetically independent signals (149 previously unreported loci in urate and gout). An additional 65 loci with signals in urate (from a GWAS of 630,117 individuals) but not gout were identified. A prioritization scheme identified candidate genes in the inflammatory process of gout, including genes involved in epigenetic remodeling, cell osmolarity and regulation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) i

  • Genetic architecture of cerebrospinal fluid and brain metabolite levels and the genetic colocalization of metabolites with human traits. - Nature genetics (2024) · Wang C, Yang C, Western D, Ali M, Wang Y, Phuah CL, Budde J, Wang L, Gorijala P, Timsina J, Ruiz A, Pastor P, Fernandez MV, Panyard DJ, Engelman CD, Deming Y, Boada M, Cano A, Garcia-Gonzalez P, Graff-Radford NR, Mori H, Lee JH, Perrin RJ, Ibanez L, Sung YJ, Cruchaga C · PubMed 39528826

    Brain metabolism perturbation can contribute to traits and diseases. We conducted a genome-wide association study for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and brain metabolite levels, identifying 205 independent associations (47.3% new signals, containing 11 new loci) for 139 CSF metabolites, and 32 independent associations (43.8% new signals, containing 4 new loci) for 31 brain metabolites. Of these, 96.9% (CSF) and 71.4% (brain) of the new signals belonged to previously analyzed metabolites in blood or urine. We integrated the metabolite quantitative trait loci (MQTLs) with 23 neurological, psychiatric and common human traits and diseases through colocalization to identify metabolites and biological processes implicated in these phenotypes. Combining CSF and brain, we identified 71 metabolite-trait

  • Body surface area is a potential obesity index: Its genetic determination and its causality for later-life diseases. - Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) (2022) · Yu XH, Cao RR, Yang YQ, Deng FY, Bo L, Lei SF · PubMed 36502284

    This study aimed to identify novel genetic factors that contribute to body surface area (BSA) and explore its relationship with complex traits and diseases. Based on more than 330,000 European individuals in the UK Biobank, the first large-scale genome-wide association study for BSA was performed. Comprehensive genetic analysis and enrichment analysis were then performed to explore the biological function of the identified loci. The genetic correlations and causal associations between BSA and other anthropometry parameters, early growth indices, and later-life diseases, respectively, were assessed by complex genetic approaches. Genome-wide association study analysis identified a total of 456 conditionally independent single-nucleotide polymorphism mapping genes with known functions in the

  • Cross-ancestry Genome-wide Association Studies of Sex Hormone Concentrations in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women. - Endocrinology (2022) · Haas CB, Hsu L, Lampe JW, Wernli KJ, Lindström S · PubMed 35192695

    Concentrations of circulating sex hormones have been associated with a variety of diseases in women and are strongly influenced by menopausal status. We investigated the genetic architectures of circulating concentrations of estradiol, testosterone, and SHBG by menopausal status in women of European and African ancestry. Using data on 229 966 women from the UK Biobank, we conducted genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of circulating concentrations of estradiol, testosterone, and SHBG in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. We tested for evidence of heterogeneity of genetic effects by menopausal status and genetic ancestry. We conducted gene-based enrichment analyses to identify tissues in which genes with GWAS-enriched signals were expressed. We identified 4 loci (5q35.2, 12q14.3, 19

  • Epigenomic and transcriptomic analyses define core cell types, genes and targetable mechanisms for kidney disease. - Nature genetics (2022) · Liu H, Doke T, Guo D, Sheng X, Ma Z, Park J, Vy HMT, Nadkarni GN, Abedini A, Miao Z, Palmer M, Voight BF, Li H, Brown CD, Ritchie MD, Shu Y, Susztak K · PubMed 35710981

    More than 800 million people suffer from kidney disease, yet the mechanism of kidney dysfunction is poorly understood. In the present study, we define the genetic association with kidney function in 1.5 million individuals and identify 878 (126 new) loci. We map the genotype effect on the methylome in 443 kidneys, transcriptome in 686 samples and single-cell open chromatin in 57,229 kidney cells. Heritability analysis reveals that methylation variation explains a larger fraction of heritability than gene expression. We present a multi-stage prioritization strategy and prioritize target genes for 87% of kidney function loci. We highlight key roles of proximal tubules and metabolism in kidney function regulation. Furthermore, the causal role of SLC47A1 in kidney disease is defined in mice wi

    Platelets play a key role in thrombosis and hemostasis. Platelet count (PLT) and mean platelet volume (MPV) are highly heritable quantitative traits, with hundreds of genetic signals previously identified, mostly in European ancestry populations. We here utilize whole genome sequencing (WGS) from NHLBI's Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine initiative (TOPMed) in a large multi-ethnic sample to further explore common and rare variation contributing to PLT (n = 61 200) and MPV (n = 23 485). We identified and replicated secondary signals at MPL (rs532784633) and PECAM1 (rs73345162), both more common in African ancestry populations. We also observed rare variation in Mendelian platelet-related disorder genes influencing variation in platelet traits in TOPMed cohorts (not enriched for

  • Whole-exome sequencing of 14 389 individuals from the ESP and CHARGE consortia identifies novel rare variation associated with hemostatic factors. - Human molecular genetics (2022) · Pankratz N, Wei P, Brody JA, Chen MH, de Vries PS, Huffman JE, Stimson MR, Auer PL, Boerwinkle E, Cushman M, de Maat MPM, Folsom AR, Franco OH, Gibbs RA, Haagenson KK, Hofman A, Johnsen JM, Kovar CL, Kraaij R, McKnight B, Metcalf GA, Muzny D, Psaty BM, Tang W, Uitterlinden AG, van Rooij JGJ, Dehghan A, O'Donnell CJ, Reiner AP, Morrison AC, Smith NL · PubMed 35552711

    Plasma levels of fibrinogen, coagulation factors VII and VIII and von Willebrand factor (vWF) are four intermediate phenotypes that are heritable and have been associated with the risk of clinical thrombotic events. To identify rare and low-frequency variants associated with these hemostatic factors, we conducted whole-exome sequencing in 10 860 individuals of European ancestry (EA) and 3529 African Americans (AAs) from the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology Consortium and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute's Exome Sequencing Project. Gene-based tests demonstrated significant associations with rare variation (minor allele frequency < 5%) in fibrinogen gamma chain (FGG) (with fibrinogen, P = 9.1 × 10-13), coagulation factor VII (F7) (with fac
