  • Integration of GWAS, QTLs and keratinocyte functional assays reveals molecular mechanisms of atopic dermatitis - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40164604

    ABSTRACT: Atopic dermatitis is a highly heritable and common inflammatory skin condition affecting children and adults worldwide. Multi-ancestry approaches to atopic dermatitis genetic association studies are poised to boost power to detect genetic signal and identify loci contributing to atopic dermatitis risk. Here, we present a multi-ancestry GWAS meta-analysis of twelve atopic dermatitis cohorts from five ancestral populations totaling 56,146 cases and 602,280 controls. We report 101 genomic loci associated with atopic dermatitis, including 16 loci that have not been previously associated with atopic dermatitis or eczema. Fine-mapping, QTL colocalization, and cell-type enrichment analyses identified genes and cell types implicated in atopic dermatitis pathophysiology. Functional analys

  • Genome-wide association studies in a large Korean cohort identify quantitative trait loci for 36 traits and illuminate their genetic architectures - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40436827

    ABSTRACT: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have predominantly focused on European ancestry populations, limiting biological discoveries across diverse populations. Here we report GWAS findings from 153,950 individuals across 36 quantitative traits in the Korean Cancer Prevention Study-II (KCPS2) Biobank. We discovered 301 previously unreported genetic loci in KCPS2, including an association between thyroid-stimulating hormone and CD36. Meta-analysis with the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study, Biobank Japan, Taiwan Biobank, and UK Biobank identified 4588 loci that were not significant in any contributing GWAS. We describe differences in genetic architectures across these East Asian and European samples. We also highlight East Asian specific associations, including a known pleiotrop

  • Genetic studies of paired metabolomes reveal enzymatic and transport processes at the interface of plasma and urine - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37277652

    ABSTRACT: The kidneys operate at the interface of plasma and urine by clearing molecular waste products while retaining valuable solutes. Genetic studies of paired plasma and urine metabolomes may identify underlying processes. We conducted genome-wide studies of 1,916 plasma and urine metabolites and detected 1,299 significant associations. Associations with 40% of implicated metabolites would have been missed by studying plasma alone. We detected urine-specific findings that provide information about metabolite reabsorption in the kidney, such as aquaporin (AQP)-7-mediated glycerol transport, and different metabolomic footprints of kidney-expressed proteins in plasma and urine that are consistent with their localization and function, including the transporters NaDC3 (SLC13A3) and ASBT (S
