  • Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39024449

    ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Findings from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have provided foundational knowledge of the genetic basis of disease, facilitating precision approaches for prevention and treatment. Current GWAS results are limited by underrepresentation of individuals from diverse populations, leading to concerns with generalizability regarding our knowledge of the relationships between genes, traits, and disease. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Million Veteran Program (MVP), one of the largest US-based biobanks, addresses this need; 29% of MVP comprises individuals genetically similar to African (AFR), Admixed American (AMR), and East Asian (EAS) reference populations. With over 635,000 participants and more than 44.3M genotyped variants linked with detailed phenotyp

  • Genome-wide association analysis of venous thromboembolism identifies new risk loci and genetic overlap with arterial vascular disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31676865

    ABSTRACT: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant cause of mortality, yet its genetic determinants remain incompletely defined. We performed a discovery genome-wide association study in the Million Veteran Program and UK Biobank testing ~13 million DNA sequence variants for association with VTE (26,066 cases; 624,053 controls) and meta-analyzed both studies, followed by independent replication with up to 17,672 VTE cases and 167,295 controls. We identified 22 novel loci, bringing the total number of VTE-associated loci to 33 and subsequently fine-mapped these associations. We developed a genome-wide polygenic risk score for VTE that identifies 5% of the population at equivalent incident VTE risk to carriers of the established F5 Leiden (p.R506Q) and prothrombin G20210A mutations. Our

  • GWAS of allometric body-shape indices in UK Biobank identifies loci suggesting associations with morphogenesis, organogenesis, adrenal cell renewal and cancer - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34021172

    ABSTRACT: Genetic studies have examined body-shape measures adjusted for body mass index (BMI), while allometric indices are additionally adjusted for height. We performed the first genome-wide association study of A Body Shape Index (ABSI), Hip Index (HI) and the new Waist-to-Hip Index and compared these with traditional indices, using data from the UK Biobank Resource for 219,872 women and 186,825 men with white British ancestry and Bayesian linear mixed-models (BOLT-LMM). One to two thirds of the loci identified for allometric body-shape indices were novel. Most prominent was rs72959041 variant in RSPO3 gene, expressed in visceral adipose tissue and regulating adrenal cell renewal. Highly ranked were genes related to morphogenesis and organogenesis, previously additionally linked to can
