  • 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

  • A genome-wide association study of bitter and sweet beverage consumption. - Human molecular genetics (2020) · Zhong VW, Kuang A, Danning RD, Kraft P, van Dam RM, Chasman DI, Cornelis MC · PubMed 31046077

    Except for drinking water, most beverages taste bitter or sweet. Taste perception and preferences are heritable and determinants of beverage choice and consumption. Consumption of several bitter- and sweet-tasting beverages has been implicated in development of major chronic diseases. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of self-reported bitter and sweet beverage consumption among ~370 000 participants of European ancestry, using a two-staged analysis design. Bitter beverages included coffee, tea, grapefruit juice, red wine, liquor and beer. Sweet beverages included artificially and sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) and non-grapefruit juices. Five loci associated with total bitter beverage consumption were replicated (in/near GCKR, ABCG2, AHR, POR and CYP1A1/2). No locus wa
