  • Genome‐Wide Assessment of Shared Genetic Architecture Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Cardiovascular Diseases - Journal of the American Heart Association (2024) · Guo Y, Chung W, Shan Z, Zhu Z, Costenbader KH, Liang L · PubMed 37947095

    ABSTRACT: Background Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have a 2‐ to 10‐fold increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the biological mechanisms and existence of causality underlying such associations remain to be investigated. We aimed to investigate the genetic associations and underlying mechanisms between RA and CVD by leveraging large‐scale genomic data and genetic cross‐trait analytic approaches. Methods and Results Within UK Biobank data, we examined the genetic correlation, shared genetics, and potential causality between RA (Ncases=6754, Ncontrols=452 384) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD, Ncases=44 238, Ncontrols=414 900) using linkage disequilibrium score regression, cross‐trait meta‐analysis, and Mendelian randomization. We observed significant

  • Shared Genetic and Experimental Links between Obesity-Related Traits and Asthma Subtypes in UK Biobank - The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology (2020) · Zhu Z, Guo Y, Shi H, Liu CL, Panganiban RA, Chung W, O'Connor LJ, Himes BE, Gazal S, Hasegawa K, Camargo CA, Qi L, Moffatt MF, Hu FB, Lu Q, Cookson WOC, Liang L · PubMed 31669095

    ABSTRACT: Background: Clinical and epidemiological studies have shown that obesity is associated with asthma and that these associations differ by asthma subtypes. Little is known about the shared genetic components between obesity and asthma. Objective: To identify shared genetic associations between obesity-related traits and asthma subtypes in adults. Methods: A cross-trait genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using 457,822 individuals of European ancestry from the UK Biobank. Experimental evidence to support the role of genes significantly associated with both obesity-related traits and asthma via GWAS was sought using results from obese vs. lean mouse RNA-seq and RT-PCR experiments. Results: We found a substantial positive genetic correlation between BMI and later-onset
