  • Whole Genome Association Study of the Plasma Metabolome Identifies Metabolites Linked to Cardiometabolic Disease in Black Individuals - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35995766

    ABSTRACT: Integrating genetic information with metabolomics has provided new insights into genes affecting human metabolism. However, gene-metabolite integration has been primarily studied in individuals of European Ancestry, limiting the opportunity to leverage genomic diversity for discovery. In addition, these analyses have principally involved known metabolites, with the majority of the profiled peaks left unannotated. Here, we perform a whole genome association study of 2,291 metabolite peaks (known and unknown features) in 2,466 Black individuals from the Jackson Heart Study. We identify 519 locus-metabolite associations for 427 metabolite peaks and validate our findings in two multi-ethnic cohorts. A significant proportion of these associations are in ancestry specific alleles inclu

  • A genome-wide association study identifies 41 loci associated with eicosanoid levels - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37524825

    ABSTRACT: Eicosanoids are biologically active derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids with broad relevance to health and disease. We report a genome-wide association study in 8406 participants of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study, identifying 41 loci associated with 92 eicosanoids and related metabolites. These findings highlight loci required for eicosanoid biosynthesis, including FADS1-3, ELOVL2, and numerous CYP450 loci. In addition, significant associations implicate a range of non-oxidative lipid metabolic processes in eicosanoid regulation, including at PKD2L1/SCD and several loci involved in fatty acyl-CoA metabolism. Further, our findings highlight select clearance mechanisms, for example, through the hepatic transporter encoded by SLCO1B1. Finally, we identify eicos
