  • Genetic architecture of bone marrow fat fraction implies its involvement in osteoporosis risk - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40796918

    ABSTRACT: Bone marrow adipose tissue, as a distinct adipose subtype, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of skeletal, metabolic, and hematopoietic disorders. To identify its underlying genetic factors, we utilized a deep learning algorithm capable of quantifying bone marrow fat fraction (BMFF) in the vertebrae and proximal femur using magnetic resonance imaging data of over 38,000 UK Biobank participants. Genome-wide association analyses uncovered 373 significant BMFF-associated variants (P-value < 5 × 10−9), with enrichment in bone remodeling, metabolism, and hematopoiesis pathway. Furthermore, genetic correlation highlighted a significant association between BMFF and skeletal disease. In about 300,000 individuals, polygenic risk scores derived from three proximal femur BMFF

  • The Polygenic and Monogenic Basis of Blood Traits and Diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32888494

    ABSTRACT: Summary Blood cells play essential roles in human health, underpinning physiological processes such as immunity, oxygen transport, and clotting, which when perturbed cause a significant global health burden. Here we integrate data from UK Biobank and a large-scale international collaborative effort, including data for 563,085 European ancestry participants, and discover 5,106 new genetic variants independently associated with 29 blood cell phenotypes covering a range of variation impacting hematopoiesis. We holistically characterize the genetic architecture of hematopoiesis, assess the relevance of the omnigenic model to blood cell phenotypes, delineate relevant hematopoietic cell states influenced by regulatory genetic variants and gene networks, identify novel splice-altering v
