  • Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies susceptibility loci for autoimmune hepatitis type 1. - Hepatology (Baltimore, Md.) (2022) · Li Y, Sun Y, Liu Y, Wang B, Li J, Wang H, Zhang H, Wang X, Han X, Lin Q, Zhou Y, Hu L, Song Y, Bao J, Gong L, Sun M, Yuan X, Zhang X, Lian M, Xiao X, Miao Q, Wang Q, Li KK, Du S, Ma A, Li Y, Xu J, Tang S, Shi J, Xu Y, Yang L, Zhang J, Huang Z, Zhou L, Cui Y, Seldin MF, Gershwin ME, Yan H, Zou Z, Zuo X, Tang R, Ma X · PubMed 35184318

    Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a rare and chronic autoimmune liver disease. While genetic factors are believed to play a crucial role in the etiopathogenesis of AIH, our understanding of these genetic risk factors is still limited. In this study, we aimed to identify susceptibility loci to further understand the pathogenesis of this disease. We conducted a case-control association study of 1,622 Chinese patients with AIH type 1 and 10,466 population controls from two independent cohorts. A meta-analysis was performed to ascertain variants associated with AIH type 1. A single-nucleotide polymorphism within the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region showed the strongest association with AIH (rs6932730: OR = 2.32; p = 9.21 × 10 ). The meta-analysis also identified two non-HLA loci significa

  • Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39024449

    ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Findings from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have provided foundational knowledge of the genetic basis of disease, facilitating precision approaches for prevention and treatment. Current GWAS results are limited by underrepresentation of individuals from diverse populations, leading to concerns with generalizability regarding our knowledge of the relationships between genes, traits, and disease. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Million Veteran Program (MVP), one of the largest US-based biobanks, addresses this need; 29% of MVP comprises individuals genetically similar to African (AFR), Admixed American (AMR), and East Asian (EAS) reference populations. With over 635,000 participants and more than 44.3M genotyped variants linked with detailed phenotyp

  • An international genome-wide meta-analysis of primary biliary cholangitis: Novel risk loci and candidate drugs - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34033851

    ABSTRACT: Backgrounds & Aims Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease in which autoimmune destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ducts eventually leads to cirrhosis. Many patients have inadequate response to licensed medications, motivating the search for novel therapies. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and meta-analyses (GWMA) of PBC have identified numerous risk loci for this condition, providing insight into its aetiology. We undertook the largest GWMA of PBC to date, aiming to identify additional risk loci and prioritise candidate genes for in silico drug efficacy screening. Methods We combined new and existing genotype data for 10,516 cases and 20,772 controls from 5 European and 2 East Asian cohorts. Results We identified 56 genome-wide signifi

  • Genome-wide association study identifies 12 new susceptibility loci for primary biliary cirrhosis - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 21399635

    ABSTRACT: In addition to the HLA-locus, six genetic risk factors for primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) have been identified in recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS). To identify additional loci, we carried out a GWAS using 1,840 cases from the UK PBC Consortium and 5,163 UK population controls as part of the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium 3 (WTCCC3). Twenty-eight loci were followed up in an additional UK cohort of 620 PBC cases and 2,514 population controls. We identified 12 novel risk loci (P<5×10−8) and replicated all previously associated loci. Three further novel loci were identified by meta-analysis of data from our study and previously published GWAS results. New candidate genes include STAT4, DENND1B, CD80, IL7R, CXCR5, TNFRSF1A, CLEC16A, and NFKB1. This study has c

  • Meta-analysis of 208370 East Asians identifies 113 susceptibility loci for systemic lupus erythematosus - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33272962

    ABSTRACT: Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disorder, has been associated with nearly 100 susceptibility loci. Nevertheless, these loci only partially explain SLE heritability and their putative causal variants are rarely prioritised, which make challenging to elucidate disease biology. To detect new SLE loci and causal variants, we performed the largest genome-wide meta-analysis for SLE in East Asian populations. Methods We newly genotyped 10 029 SLE cases and 180 167 controls and subsequently meta-analysed them jointly with 3348 SLE cases and 14 826 controls from published studies in East Asians. We further applied a Bayesian statistical approach to localise the putative causal variants for SLE associations. Results We identified 113 genetic regions includ
