  • GWAS of lifetime cannabis use reveals new risk loci, genetic overlap with psychiatric traits, and a causal influence of schizophrenia - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30150663

    ABSTRACT: Cannabis use is a heritable trait that has been associated with adverse mental health outcomes. In the largest genome-wide association study for lifetime cannabis use to date (N=184,765), we identified 8 genome-wide significant independent single nucleotide polymorphisms in 6 regions. All measured genetic variants combined explained 11% of the variance. Gene-based tests revealed 35 significant genes in 16 regions, and S-PrediXcan analyses showed that 21 genes had different expression levels for cannabis users versus non-users. The strongest finding across the different analyses was CADM2, which has been associated with substance use and risk-taking. Significant genetic correlations were found with 14 of 25 tested substance use and mental health traits, including smoking, alcohol

  • Genetic drivers of heterogeneity in type 2 diabetes pathophysiology - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38374256

    ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease that develops through diverse pathophysiological processes and molecular mechanisms that are often specific to cell type. Here, to characterize the genetic contribution to these processes across ancestry groups, we aggregate genome-wide association study data from 2,535,601 individuals (39.7% not of European ancestry), including 428,452 cases of T2D. We identify 1,289 independent association signals at genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10−8) that map to 611 loci, of which 145 loci are, to our knowledge, previously unreported. We define eight non-overlapping clusters of T2D signals that are characterized by distinct profiles of cardiometabolic trait associations. These clusters are differentially enriched for cell-type-sp

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Diet

  • refined carbohydrates and added sugars High

    Type 2 diabetes genetic risk via ATP2A1; refined carbohydrates impair glucose homeostasis and insulin response

    limit refined carbs to <25% of daily calories; prioritize whole grains and legumes

Exercise

  • regular aerobic and resistance exercise High

    Type 2 diabetes genetic risk via ATP2A1 calcium handling affects insulin secretion; exercise improves insulin sensitivity

    150 min moderate aerobic activity weekly plus 2x resistance training weekly

Lifestyle

  • cannabis use Moderate

    genetic association with cannabis use indicates increased vulnerability to use disorder or initiation

    avoid regular or heavy cannabis consumption

Screening

  • glucose and HbA1c levels annually High

    Type 2 diabetes genetic risk via ATP2A1; early detection enables intervention before disease onset

    fasting glucose and HbA1c screening at age 30 and annually thereafter
