  • Genome-wide association study identifies a new locus JMJD1C at 10q21 that may influence serum androgen levels in men. - Human molecular genetics (2013) · Jin G, Sun J, Kim ST, Feng J, Wang Z, Tao S, Chen Z, Purcell L, Smith S, Isaacs WB, Rittmaster RS, Zheng SL, Condreay LD, Xu J · PubMed 22936694

    Circulating androgen levels are often used as indicators of physiological or pathological conditions. More than half of the variance for circulating androgen levels is thought to be genetically influenced. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) has identified two loci, SHBG at 17p13 and FAM9B at Xp22, for serum testosterone (T) levels; however, these explain only a small fraction of inter-individual variability. To identify additional genetic determinants of androgen levels, a GWAS of baseline serum T and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels was conducted in 3225 men of European ancestry from the REduction by DUtasteride of Prostate Cancer Events (REDUCE) study. Cross-validation was used to confirm the observed associations between the drug (n = 1581) and placebo (n = 1644) groups of REDUCE. I

  • Genetic associations with ratios between protein levels detect new pQTLs and reveal protein-protein interactions - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38412862

    ABSTRACT: Summary Protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs) are an invaluable source of information for drug target development because they provide genetic evidence to support protein function, suggest relationships between cis- and trans-associated proteins, and link proteins to disease endpoints. Using Olink proteomics data for 1,463 proteins measured in over 54,000 samples of the UK Biobank, we identified 4,248 associations with 2,821 ratios between protein levels (rQTLs). rQTLs were 7.6-fold enriched in known protein-protein interactions, suggesting that their ratios reflect biological links between the implicated proteins. Conducting a GWAS on ratios increased the number of discovered genetic signals by 24.7%. The approach can identify novel loci of clinical relevance, support causal g

  • High Blood Pressure and Intraocular Pressure: A Mendelian Randomization Study - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35762941

    ABSTRACT: Purpose To test for causality with regard to the association between blood pressure (BP) and intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma. Methods Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with BP were identified in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of 526,001 participants of European ancestry. These SNPs were used to assess the BP versus IOP relationship in a distinct sample (n = 70,832) whose corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) was measured. To evaluate the BP versus primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) relationship, additional Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were conducted using published GWAS summary statistics. Results Observational analysis revealed a linear relationship between BP traits and IOPcc, with a +0.28 mm Hg increase in IOPcc per 10-mm Hg inc
