  • Gene-by-environment interactions modulate the infant gut microbiota in asthma and atopy. - The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology (2025) · Stickley SA, Fang ZY, Ambalavanan A, Zhang Y, Zacharias AM, Petersen C, Dai D, Azad MB, Brook JR, Mandhane PJ, Simons E, Moraes TJ, Surette MG, Turvey SE, Subbarao P, Duan Q · PubMed 40187613

    Gut microbiota has been associated with health and susceptibility to childhood diseases, including asthma and allergies. However, the genomic factors contributing to interindividual variations in gut microbiota remain poorly understood. We sought to integrate host genomics with early-life exposures to investigate main and interaction effects on gut microbiota during the first year of life. In addition, we identified gut microbes associated with childhood respiratory (asthma, wheeze) and atopic (atopic dermatitis, food/inhalant sensitization) outcomes. We leveraged microbiome data from infant stool at ages 3 months (N = 779) and 1 year (N = 770) from the CHILD Cohort Study. We identified microbial taxa and co-occurring network clusters associated with asthma and atopy by age 5 years. Genome

  • Gene discovery and polygenic prediction from a 1.1-million-person GWAS of educational attainment - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30038396

    ABSTRACT: We conduct a large-scale genetic association analysis of educational attainment in a sample of ~1.1 million individuals and identify 1,271 independent genome-wide-significant SNPs. For the SNPs taken together, we found evidence of heterogeneous effects across environments. The SNPs implicate genes involved in brain-development processes and neuron-to-neuron communication. In a separate analysis of the X chromosome, we identify 10 independent genome-wide-significant SNPs and estimate a SNP heritability of ~0.3% in both men and women, consistent with partial dosage compensation. A joint (multi-phenotype) analysis of educational attainment and three related cognitive phenotypes generates polygenic scores that explain 11-13% of the variance in educational attainment and 7-10% of
