  • Genome-wide association study in 8,956 German individuals identifies influence of ABO histo-blood groups on gut microbiome. - Nature genetics (2021) · Rühlemann MC, Hermes BM, Bang C, Doms S, Moitinho-Silva L, Thingholm LB, Frost F, Degenhardt F, Wittig M, Kässens J, Weiss FU, Peters A, Neuhaus K, Völker U, Völzke H, Homuth G, Weiss S, Grallert H, Laudes M, Lieb W, Haller D, Lerch MM, Baines JF, Franke A · PubMed 33462482

    The intestinal microbiome is implicated as an important modulating factor in multiple inflammatory , neurologic and neoplastic diseases . Recent genome-wide association studies yielded inconsistent, underpowered and rarely replicated results such that the role of human host genetics as a contributing factor to microbiome assembly and structure remains uncertain . Nevertheless, twin studies clearly suggest host genetics as a driver of microbiome composition . In a genome-wide association analysis of 8,956 German individuals, we identified 38 genetic loci to be associated with single bacteria and overall microbiome composition. Further analyses confirm the identified associations of ABO histo-blood groups and FUT2 secretor status with Bacteroides and Faecalibacterium spp. Mendelian randomiza

  • The 18p11.22 locus is associated with never smoker non-small cell lung cancer susceptibility in Korean populations. - Human genetics (2012) · Ahn MJ, Won HH, Lee J, Lee ST, Sun JM, Park YH, Ahn JS, Kwon OJ, Kim H, Shim YM, Kim J, Kim K, Kim YH, Park JY, Kim JW, Park K · PubMed 21866343

    The proportion of never smoker non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Asia is about 30-40%. Despite the striking demographics and high prevalence of never smoker NSCLC, the exact causes still remain undetermined. Although several genome wide association (GWA) studies were conducted to find susceptibility loci for lung cancer in never smokers, no regions were replicated except for 5p15.33, suggesting locus heterogeneity and different environmental toxic effects. To identify genetic loci associated with susceptibility of lung cancer in never smokers, we performed a GWA analysis using the Affymetrix 6.0 SNP array. For discovery GWA set, we recruited 446 never smoking Korean patients with NSCLC and 497 normal subjects. We tested association of SNPs with lung cancer susceptibility using the Coch
