  • A genome-wide association analysis reveals new pathogenic pathways in gout. - Nature genetics (2024) · Major TJ, Takei R, Matsuo H, Leask MP, Sumpter NA, Topless RK, Shirai Y, Wang W, Cadzow MJ, Phipps-Green AJ, Li Z, Ji A, Merriman ME, Morice E, Kelley EE, Wei WH, McCormick SPA, Bixley MJ, Reynolds RJ, Saag KG, Fadason T, Golovina E, O'Sullivan JM, Stamp LK, Dalbeth N, Abhishek A, Doherty M, Roddy E, Jacobsson LTH, Kapetanovic MC, Melander O, Andrés M, Pérez-Ruiz F, Torres RJ, Radstake T, Jansen TL, Janssen M, Joosten LAB, Liu R, Gaal OI, Crişan TO, Rednic S, Kurreeman F, Huizinga TWJ, Toes R, Lioté F, Richette P, Bardin T, Ea HK, Pascart T, McCarthy GM, Helbert L, Stibůrková B, Tausche AK, Uhlig T, Vitart V, Boutin TS, Hayward C, Riches PL, Ralston SH, Campbell A, MacDonald TM, Nakayama A, Takada T, Nakatochi M, Shimizu S, Kawamura Y, Toyoda Y, Nakaoka H, Yamamoto K, Matsuo K, Shinomiya N, Ichida K, Lee C, Bradbury LA, Brown MA, Robinson PC, Buchanan RRC, Hill CL, Lester S, Smith MD, Rischmueller M, Choi HK, Stahl EA, Miner JN, Solomon DH, Cui J, Giacomini KM, Brackman DJ, Jorgenson EM, Liu H, Susztak K, Shringarpure S, So A, Okada Y, Li C, Shi Y, Merriman TR · PubMed 39406924

    Gout is a chronic disease that is caused by an innate immune response to deposited monosodium urate crystals in the setting of hyperuricemia. Here, we provide insights into the molecular mechanism of the poorly understood inflammatory component of gout from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 2.6 million people, including 120,295 people with prevalent gout. We detected 377 loci and 410 genetically independent signals (149 previously unreported loci in urate and gout). An additional 65 loci with signals in urate (from a GWAS of 630,117 individuals) but not gout were identified. A prioritization scheme identified candidate genes in the inflammatory process of gout, including genes involved in epigenetic remodeling, cell osmolarity and regulation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) i

  • A cross-population atlas of genetic associations for 220 human phenotypes. - Nature genetics (2021) · Sakaue S, Kanai M, Tanigawa Y, Karjalainen J, Kurki M, Koshiba S, Narita A, Konuma T, Yamamoto K, Akiyama M, Ishigaki K, Suzuki A, Suzuki K, Obara W, Yamaji K, Takahashi K, Asai S, Takahashi Y, Suzuki T, Shinozaki N, Yamaguchi H, Minami S, Murayama S, Yoshimori K, Nagayama S, Obata D, Higashiyama M, Masumoto A, Koretsune Y, Ito K, Terao C, Yamauchi T, Komuro I, Kadowaki T, Tamiya G, Yamamoto M, Nakamura Y, Kubo M, Murakami Y, Yamamoto K, Kamatani Y, Palotie A, Rivas MA, Daly MJ, Matsuda K, Okada Y · PubMed 34594039

    Current genome-wide association studies do not yet capture sufficient diversity in populations and scope of phenotypes. To expand an atlas of genetic associations in non-European populations, we conducted 220 deep-phenotype genome-wide association studies (diseases, biomarkers and medication usage) in BioBank Japan (n = 179,000), by incorporating past medical history and text-mining of electronic medical records. Meta-analyses with the UK Biobank and FinnGen (n = 628,000) identified ~5,000 new loci, which improved the resolution of the genomic map of human traits. This atlas elucidated the landscape of pleiotropy as represented by the major histocompatibility complex locus, where we conducted HLA fine-mapping. Finally, we performed statistical decomposition of matrices of phenome-wid

  • Genome-wide Association Study for Vitamin D Levels Reveals 69 Independent Loci. - American journal of human genetics (2020) · Manousaki D, Mitchell R, Dudding T, Haworth S, Harroud A, Forgetta V, Shah RL, Luan J, Langenberg C, Timpson NJ, Richards JB · PubMed 32059762

    We aimed to increase our understanding of the genetic determinants of vitamin D levels by undertaking a large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) of serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD). To do so, we used imputed genotypes from 401,460 white British UK Biobank participants with available 25OHD levels, retaining single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with minor allele frequency (MAF) > 0.1% and imputation quality score > 0.3. We performed a linear mixed model GWAS on standardized log-transformed 25OHD, adjusting for age, sex, season of measurement, and vitamin D supplementation. These results were combined with those from a previous GWAS including 42,274 Europeans. In silico functional follow-up of the GWAS results was undertaken to identify enrichment in gene sets, pathways, and expre

  • Trans-ethnic and ancestry-specific blood-cell genetics in 746,667 individuals from 5 global populations - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32888493

    ABSTRACT: SUMMARY Most loci identified by GWAS have been found in populations of European ancestry (EUR). In trans-ethnic meta-analyses for 15 hematological traits in 746,667 participants, including 184,535 non-EUR individuals, we identified 5,552 trait-variant associations at P<5×10−9, including 71 novel loci not found in EUR populations. We also identified 28 additional novel variants in ancestry-specific, non-EUR meta-analyses, including an IL7 missense variant in South Asians associated with lymphocyte count in vivo and IL7 secretion levels in vitro. Fine-mapping prioritized variants annotated as functional, and generated 95% credible sets that were 30% smaller when using the trans-ethnic as opposed to the EUR-only results. We explored the clinical significance and predictive value

  • Lipidome‐ and Genome‐Wide Study to Understand Sex Differences in Circulatory Lipids - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36193934

    ABSTRACT: Background Despite well‐recognized differences in the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk between men and women, sex differences in risk factors and sex‐specific mechanisms in the pathophysiology of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease remain poorly understood. Lipid metabolism plays a central role in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Understanding sex differences in lipids and their genetic determinants could provide mechanistic insights into sex differences in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and aid in precise risk assessment. Herein, we examined sex differences in plasma lipidome and heterogeneity in genetic influences on lipidome in men and women through sex‐stratified genome‐wide association analyses. Methods and Results We u

  • Genome-wide association study of alcohol consumption and genetic overlap with other health-related traits in UK Biobank (N=112 117) - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 28937693

    ABSTRACT: Alcohol consumption has been linked to over 200 diseases and is responsible for over 5% of the global disease burden. Well-known genetic variants in alcohol metabolizing genes, for example, ALDH2 and ADH1B, are strongly associated with alcohol consumption but have limited impact in European populations where they are found at low frequency. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of self-reported alcohol consumption in 112 117 individuals in the UK Biobank (UKB) sample of white British individuals. We report significant genome-wide associations at 14 loci. These include single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in alcohol metabolizing genes (ADH1B/ADH1C/ADH5) and two loci in KLB, a gene recently associated with alcohol consumption. We also identify SNPs at novel loci i

  • The contribution of common and rare genetic variants to variation in metabolic traits in 288,137 East Asians - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36333282

    ABSTRACT: Metabolic traits are heritable phenotypes widely-used in assessing the risk of various diseases. We conduct a genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) of nine metabolic traits (including glycemic, lipid, liver enzyme levels) in 125,872 Korean subjects genotyped with the Korea Biobank Array. Following meta-analysis with GWAS from Biobank Japan identify 144 novel signals (MAF ≥ 1%), of which 57.0% are replicated in UK Biobank. Additionally, we discover 66 rare (MAF < 1%) variants, 94.4% of them co-incident to common loci, adding to allelic series. Although rare variants have limited contribution to overall trait variance, these lead, in carriers, substantial loss of predictive accuracy from polygenic predictions of disease risk from common variant alone. We capture groups

  • Mapping the proteo-genomic convergence of human diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34648354

    ABSTRACT: Characterization of the genetic regulation of proteins is essential for understanding disease etiology and developing therapies. We identified 10,674 genetic associations for 3,892 plasma proteins to create a cis-anchored gene-protein-disease map of 1,859 connections that highlights strong cross-disease biological convergence. This proteo-genomic map provides a framework to 1) connect etiologically related diseases, 2) provide biological context for new or emerging disorders, and 3) integrate different biological domains to establish mechanisms for known gene-disease links. Our results identify proteo-genomic connections within and between diseases and establish the value of cis-protein variants for annotation of likely causal disease genes at GWAS loci, addressing a major barrie
