  • Genomic dissection of 43 serum urate-associated loci provides multiple insights into molecular mechanisms of urate control. - Human molecular genetics (2021) · Boocock J, Leask M, Okada Y, Matsuo H, Kawamura Y, Shi Y, Li C, Mount DB, Mandal AK, Wang W, Cadzow M, Gosling AL, Major TJ, Horsfield JA, Choi HK, Fadason T, O'Sullivan J, Stahl EA, Merriman TR · PubMed 31985003

    High serum urate is a prerequisite for gout and associated with metabolic disease. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have reported dozens of loci associated with serum urate control; however, there has been little progress in understanding the molecular basis of the associated loci. Here, we employed trans-ancestral meta-analysis using data from European and East Asian populations to identify 10 new loci for serum urate levels. Genome-wide colocalization with cis-expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) identified a further five new candidate loci. By cis- and trans-eQTL colocalization analysis, we identified 34 and 20 genes, respectively, where the causal eQTL variant has a high likelihood that it is shared with the serum urate-associated locus. One new locus identified was SLC22A9

  • Modulation of Genetic Associations with Serum Urate Levels by Body-Mass-Index in Humans - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 25811787

    ABSTRACT: We tested for interactions between body mass index (BMI) and common genetic variants affecting serum urate levels, genome-wide, in up to 42569 participants. Both stratified genome-wide association (GWAS) analyses, in lean, overweight and obese individuals, and regression-type analyses in a non BMI-stratified overall sample were performed. The former did not uncover any novel locus with a major main effect, but supported modulation of effects for some known and potentially new urate loci. The latter highlighted a SNP at RBFOX3 reaching genome-wide significant level (effect size 0.014, 95% CI 0.008-0.02, Pinter= 2.6 x 10-8). Two top loci in interaction term analyses, RBFOX3 and ERO1LB-EDARADD, also displayed suggestive differences in main effect size between the lean and obese stra
