• A cross-population atlas of genetic associations for 220 human phenotypes. - Nature genetics (2021) · Sakaue S, Kanai M, Tanigawa Y, Karjalainen J, Kurki M, Koshiba S, Narita A, Konuma T, Yamamoto K, Akiyama M, Ishigaki K, Suzuki A, Suzuki K, Obara W, Yamaji K, Takahashi K, Asai S, Takahashi Y, Suzuki T, Shinozaki N, Yamaguchi H, Minami S, Murayama S, Yoshimori K, Nagayama S, Obata D, Higashiyama M, Masumoto A, Koretsune Y, Ito K, Terao C, Yamauchi T, Komuro I, Kadowaki T, Tamiya G, Yamamoto M, Nakamura Y, Kubo M, Murakami Y, Yamamoto K, Kamatani Y, Palotie A, Rivas MA, Daly MJ, Matsuda K, Okada Y · PubMed 34594039

  Current genome-wide association studies do not yet capture sufficient diversity in populations and scope of phenotypes. To expand an atlas of genetic associations in non-European populations, we conducted 220 deep-phenotype genome-wide association studies (diseases, biomarkers and medication usage) in BioBank Japan (n = 179,000), by incorporating past medical history and text-mining of electronic medical records. Meta-analyses with the UK Biobank and FinnGen (n = 628,000) identified ~5,000 new loci, which improved the resolution of the genomic map of human traits. This atlas elucidated the landscape of pleiotropy as represented by the major histocompatibility complex locus, where we conducted HLA fine-mapping. Finally, we performed statistical decomposition of matrices of phenome-wid

• Genetic Architectures of Childhood- and Adult-Onset Asthma Are Partly Distinct. - American journal of human genetics (2020) · Ferreira MAR, Mathur R, Vonk JM, Szwajda A, Brumpton B, Granell R, Brew BK, Ullemar V, Lu Y, Jiang Y, Magnusson PKE, Karlsson R, Hinds DA, Paternoster L, Koppelman GH, Almqvist C · PubMed 30929738

  The extent to which genetic risk factors are shared between childhood-onset (COA) and adult-onset (AOA) asthma has not been estimated. On the basis of data from the UK Biobank study (n = 447,628), we found that the variance in disease liability explained by common variants is higher for COA (onset at ages between 0 and 19 years; h = 25.6%) than for AOA (onset at ages between 20 and 60 years; h = 10.6%). The genetic correlation (r ) between COA and AOA was 0.67. Variation in age of onset among COA-affected individuals had a low heritability (h = 5%), which we confirmed in independent studies and also among AOA-affected individuals. To identify subtype-specific genetic associations, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in the UK Biobank for COA (13,962 affected individuals) a

• Multi-ancestry meta-analysis of asthma identifies novel associations and highlights the value of increased power and diversity - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36778051

  ABSTRACT: Summary Asthma is a complex disease that varies widely in prevalence across populations. The extent to which genetic variation contributes to these disparities is unclear, as the genetics underlying asthma have been investigated primarily in populations of European descent. As part of the Global Biobank Meta-analysis Initiative, we conducted a large-scale genome-wide association study of asthma (153,763 cases and 1,647,022 controls) via meta-analysis across 22 biobanks spanning multiple ancestries. We discovered 179 asthma-associated loci, 49 of which were not previously reported. Despite the wide range in asthma prevalence among biobanks, we found largely consistent genetic effects across biobanks and ancestries. The meta-analysis also improved polygenic risk prediction in non-E

• The Allelic Landscape of Human Blood Cell Trait Variation and Links to Common Complex Disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 27863252

  ABSTRACT: Summary Many common variants have been associated with hematological traits, but identification of causal genes and pathways has proven challenging. We performed a genome-wide association analysis in the UK Biobank and INTERVAL studies, testing 29.5 million genetic variants for association with 36 red cell, white cell, and platelet properties in 173,480 European-ancestry participants. This effort yielded hundreds of low frequency (<5%) and rare (<1%) variants with a strong impact on blood cell phenotypes. Our data highlight general properties of the allelic architecture of complex traits, including the proportion of the heritable component of each blood trait explained by the polygenic signal across different genome regulatory domains. Finally, through Mendelian randomization, we

• Principled distillation of UK Biobank phenotype data reveals underlying structure in human variation - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38965376

  ABSTRACT: Data within biobanks capture broad yet detailed indices of human variation, but biobank-wide insights can be difficult to extract due to complexity and scale. Here, using large-scale factor analysis, we distill hundreds of variables (diagnoses, assessments and survey items) into 35 latent constructs, using data from unrelated individuals with predominantly estimated European genetic ancestry in UK Biobank. These factors recapitulate known disease classifications, disentangle elements of socioeconomic status, highlight the relevance of psychiatric constructs to health and improve measurement of pro-health behaviours. We go on to demonstrate the power of this approach to clarify genetic signal, enhance discovery and identify associations between underlying phenotypic structure and

• Genetic analyses implicate complex links between adult testosterone levels and health and disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36653534

  ABSTRACT: Background Testosterone levels are linked with diverse characteristics of human health, yet, whether these associations reflect correlation or causation remains debated. Here, we provide a broad perspective on the role of genetically determined testosterone on complex diseases in both sexes. Methods Leveraging genetic and health registry data from the UK Biobank and FinnGen (total N = 625,650), we constructed polygenic scores (PGS) for total testosterone, sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and free testosterone, associating these with 36 endpoints across different disease categories in the FinnGen. These analyses were combined with Mendelian Randomization (MR) and cross-sex PGS analyses to address causality. Results We show testosterone and SHBG levels are intricately tied t
