  • 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

  • Shared Genetic and Experimental Links between Obesity-Related Traits and Asthma Subtypes in UK Biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31669095

    ABSTRACT: Background: Clinical and epidemiological studies have shown that obesity is associated with asthma and that these associations differ by asthma subtypes. Little is known about the shared genetic components between obesity and asthma. Objective: To identify shared genetic associations between obesity-related traits and asthma subtypes in adults. Methods: A cross-trait genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using 457,822 individuals of European ancestry from the UK Biobank. Experimental evidence to support the role of genes significantly associated with both obesity-related traits and asthma via GWAS was sought using results from obese vs. lean mouse RNA-seq and RT-PCR experiments. Results: We found a substantial positive genetic correlation between BMI and later-onset
