  • Identification of new therapeutic targets for osteoarthritis through genome-wide analyses of UK Biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30664745

    ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis is the most common musculoskeletal disease and the leading cause of disability globally. Here, we perform a genome-wide association study for osteoarthritis (77,052 cases and 378,169 controls), analysing 4 phenotypes: knee osteoarthritis, hip osteoarthritis, knee and/or hip osteoarthritis, and any osteoarthritis. We discover 64 signals, 52 of them novel, more than doubling the number of established disease loci. Six signals fine map to a single variant. We identify putative effector genes by integrating eQTL colocalization, fine-mapping, human rare disease, animal model, and osteoarthritis tissue expression data. We find enrichment for genes underlying monogenic forms of bone development diseases, and for the collagen formation and extracellular matrix organisation

  • The phenotypic and genetic association between endometriosis and immunological diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40262193

    ABSTRACT: Abstract STUDY QUESTION Is there an increased risk of immunological diseases among endometriosis patients, and does a shared genetic basis contribute to this risk? SUMMARY ANSWER Endometriosis patients show a significantly increased risk of autoimmune, autoinflammatory, and mixed-pattern diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, coeliac disease, osteoarthritis, and psoriasis, with genetic correlations between endometriosis and osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis, and a potential causal link to rheumatoid arthritis. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY The epidemiological evidence for an increased risk of immunological diseases among women with endometriosis is limited in scope and has varied in robustness due to the opportunity for biases.
