• Combining cross-sectional and longitudinal genomic approaches to identify determinants of cognitive and physical decline - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40374629

  ABSTRACT: Large-scale genomic studies focusing on the genetic contribution to human aging have mostly relied on cross-sectional data. With the release of longitudinally curated aging phenotypes by the UK Biobank (UKBB), it is now possible to study aging over time at genome-wide scale. In this work, we evaluated the suitability of competing models of change in realistic simulation settings, performed genome-wide association scans on simulation-validated measures of age-related deweekcline, and followed up with LD-score regression and Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses. Focusing on global cognitive and physical function, we observed marked differences between baseline function (θ) and accelerated decline (Δ). Both outcomes showed distinct heritability levels (e.g., 31.38% versus 3.15%

• Large-scale association analysis provides insights into the genetic architecture and pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 22885922

  ABSTRACT: To extend understanding of the genetic architecture and molecular basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D), we conducted a meta-analysis of genetic variants on the Metabochip involving 34,840 cases and 114,981 controls, overwhelmingly of European descent. We identified ten previously unreported T2D susceptibility loci, including two demonstrating sex-differentiated association. Genome-wide analyses of these data are consistent with a long tail of further common variant loci explaining much of the variation in susceptibility to T2D. Exploration of the enlarged set of susceptibility loci implicates several processes, including CREBBP-related transcription, adipocytokine signalling and cell cycle regulation, in diabetes pathogenesis.

• A saturated map of common genetic variants associated with human height - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36224396

  ABSTRACT: Common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are predicted to collectively explain 40-50% of phenotypic variation in human height, but identifying the specific variants and associated regions requires huge sample sizes. Here, using data from a genome-wide association study of 5.4 million individuals of diverse ancestries, we show that 12,111 independent SNPs that are significantly associated with height account for nearly all of the common SNP-based heritability. These SNPs are clustered within 7,209 non-overlapping genomic segments with a mean size of around 90 kb, covering about 21% of the genome. The density of independent associations varies across the genome and the regions of increased density are enriched for biologically relevant genes. In out-of-sample estimation

• Identification of new susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes and shared etiological pathways with coronary heart disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 28869590

  ABSTRACT: To evaluate the shared genetic etiology of type-2 diabetes (T2D) and coronary heart disease (CHD), we conducted a multi-ethnic study of genetic variation genome-wide for both diseases in up to 265,678 subjects for T2D and 260,365 subjects for CHD. We identify 16 previously unreported loci for T2D and one for CHD, including a novel T2D association at a missense variant in HLA-DRB5 (OR=1.29). We show that genetically mediated increase in T2D risk also confers higher CHD risk. Joint analysis of T2D loci demonstrated that 24% are associated with CHD, highlighting eight variants - two of which are coding - where T2D and CHD associations appear to co-localize, and a novel joint T2D/CHD association which also replicated for T2D. Variants associated with both outcomes implicate several n
