  • The genetic architecture of the corpus callosum and its genetic overlap with common neuropsychiatric diseases. - Journal of affective disorders (2023) · Chen SJ, Wu BS, Ge YJ, Chen SD, Ou YN, Dong Q, Feng J, Cheng W, Yu JT · PubMed 37164063

    The corpus callosum (CC) is the main structure transferring information between the cerebral hemispheres. Although previous large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) has illustrated the genetic architecture of white matter integrity of CC, CC volume is less stressed. Using MRI data from 33,861 individuals in UK Biobank, we conducted univariate and multivariate GWAS for CC fractional anisotropy (FA) and volume with PLINK 2.0 and MOSTest. All discovered SNPs in the multivariate framework were functionally annotated in FUMA v1.3.8. In the meanwhile, a series of gene property analyses was conducted simultaneously. In addition, we estimated genetic relationship between CC metrics and other neuropsychiatric traits and diseases. We identified a total of 36 and 82 significant genomic loci f

  • The genetics of a "femaleness/maleness" score in cardiometabolic traits in the UK biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37277458

    ABSTRACT: We recently devised continuous "sex-scores" that sum up multiple quantitative traits, weighted by their respective sex-difference effect sizes, as an approach to estimating polyphenotypic "maleness/femaleness" within each binary sex. To identify the genetic architecture underlying these sex-scores, we conducted sex-specific genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in the UK Biobank cohort (females: n = 161,906; males: n = 141,980). As a control, we also conducted GWASs of sex-specific "sum-scores", simply aggregating the same traits, without weighting by sex differences. Among GWAS-identified genes, while sum-score genes were enriched for genes differentially expressed in the liver in both sexes, sex-score genes were enriched for genes differentially expressed

  • New role of fat-free mass in cancer risk linked with genetic predisposition - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38538606

    ABSTRACT: Cancer risk is associated with the widely debated measure body mass index (BMI). Fat mass and fat-free mass measurements from bioelectrical impedance may further clarify this association. The UK Biobank is a rare resource in which bioelectrical impedance and BMI data was collected on ~ 500,000 individuals. Using this dataset, a comprehensive analysis using regression, principal component and genome-wide genetic association, provided multiple levels of evidence that increasing whole body fat (WBFM) and fat-free mass (WBFFM) are both associated with increased post-menopausal breast cancer risk, and colorectal cancer risk in men. WBFM was inversely associated with prostate cancer. We also identified rs615029[T] and rs1485995[G] as associated in independent analyses with both PMB
