  • Multi-trait and multi-ancestry genetic analysis of comorbid lung diseases and traits improves genetic discovery and polygenic risk prediction. - Nature genetics (2026) · He Y, Lu W, Jee YH, Shih MY, Wang Y, Tsuo K, Qian DC, Diao JA, Huang H, Patel CJ, Byun J, Pasaniuc B, Atkinson EG, Amos CI, Feng YA, Moll M, Cho MH, Martin AR · PubMed 41565855

    While respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma share many risk factors, most studies investigate them in isolation and in predominantly European-ancestry populations. Here, we conducted the most powerful multi-trait and multi-ancestry genetic analysis of respiratory diseases and auxiliary traits to date, identifying 25 new loci associated with lung function in individuals of East Asian ancestry. Using these results, we developed PRSxtra (cross-trait and cross-ancestry), a multi-trait and multi-ancestry polygenic risk score (PRS) approach that leverages shared components of heritable risk via pleiotropic effects. PRSxtra significantly improved the prediction of asthma, COPD and lung cancer compared to trait- and ancestry-matched PRSs in a multi-an

  • Genome-wide analyses identify a role for SLC17A4 and AADAT in thyroid hormone regulation - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30367059

    ABSTRACT: Thyroid dysfunction is an important public health problem, which affects 10% of the general population and increases the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Many aspects of thyroid hormone regulation have only partly been elucidated, including its transport, metabolism, and genetic determinants. Here we report a large meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for thyroid function and dysfunction, testing 8 million genetic variants in up to 72,167 individuals. One-hundred-and-nine independent genetic variants are associated with these traits. A genetic risk score, calculated to assess their combined effects on clinical end points, shows significant associations with increased risk of both overt (Graves' disease) and subclinical thyroid disease, as well as clin
