  • Gene-by-environment interactions modulate the infant gut microbiota in asthma and atopy. - The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology (2025) · Stickley SA, Fang ZY, Ambalavanan A, Zhang Y, Zacharias AM, Petersen C, Dai D, Azad MB, Brook JR, Mandhane PJ, Simons E, Moraes TJ, Surette MG, Turvey SE, Subbarao P, Duan Q · PubMed 40187613

    Gut microbiota has been associated with health and susceptibility to childhood diseases, including asthma and allergies. However, the genomic factors contributing to interindividual variations in gut microbiota remain poorly understood. We sought to integrate host genomics with early-life exposures to investigate main and interaction effects on gut microbiota during the first year of life. In addition, we identified gut microbes associated with childhood respiratory (asthma, wheeze) and atopic (atopic dermatitis, food/inhalant sensitization) outcomes. We leveraged microbiome data from infant stool at ages 3 months (N = 779) and 1 year (N = 770) from the CHILD Cohort Study. We identified microbial taxa and co-occurring network clusters associated with asthma and atopy by age 5 years. Genome

  • 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
