  • Association analyses based on false discovery rate implicate new loci for coronary artery disease. - Nature genetics (2017) · Nelson CP, Goel A, Butterworth AS, Kanoni S, Webb TR, Marouli E, Zeng L, Ntalla I, Lai FY, Hopewell JC, Giannakopoulou O, Jiang T, Hamby SE, Di Angelantonio E, Assimes TL, Bottinger EP, Chambers JC, Clarke R, Palmer CNA, Cubbon RM, Ellinor P, Ermel R, Evangelou E, Franks PW, Grace C, Gu D, Hingorani AD, Howson JMM, Ingelsson E, Kastrati A, Kessler T, Kyriakou T, Lehtimäki T, Lu X, Lu Y, März W, McPherson R, Metspalu A, Pujades-Rodriguez M, Ruusalepp A, Schadt EE, Schmidt AF, Sweeting MJ, Zalloua PA, AlGhalayini K, Keavney BD, Kooner JS, Loos RJF, Patel RS, Rutter MK, Tomaszewski M, Tzoulaki I, Zeggini E, Erdmann J, Dedoussis G, Björkegren JLM, Schunkert H, Farrall M, Danesh J, Samani NJ, Watkins H, Deloukas P · PubMed 28714975

    Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in coronary artery disease (CAD) had identified 66 loci at 'genome-wide significance' (P < 5 × 10 ) at the time of this analysis, but a much larger number of putative loci at a false discovery rate (FDR) of 5% (refs. 1,2,3,4). Here we leverage an interim release of UK Biobank (UKBB) data to evaluate the validity of the FDR approach. We tested a CAD phenotype inclusive of angina (SOFT; n = 10,801) as well as a stricter definition without angina (HARD; n = 6,482) and selected cases with the former phenotype to conduct a meta-analysis using the two most recent CAD GWAS. This approach identified 13 new loci at genome-wide significance, 12 of which were on our previous list of loci meeting the 5% FDR threshold, thus providing strong support that the remai

  • A comprehensive 1000 Genomes-based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 26343387

    ABSTRACT: Existing knowledge of genetic variants affecting risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) is largely based on genome-wide association studies (GWAS) analysis of common SNPs. Leveraging phased haplotypes from the 1000 Genomes Project, we report a GWAS meta-analysis of 185 thousand CAD cases and controls, interrogating 6.7 million common (MAF>0.05) as well as 2.7 million low frequency (0.005<MAF<0.05) variants. In addition to confirmation of most known CAD loci, we identified 10 novel loci, eight additive and two recessive, that contain candidate genes that newly implicate biological processes in vessel walls. We observed intra-locus allelic heterogeneity but little evidence of low frequency variants with larger effects and no evidence of synthetic association. Our analysis provides a

  • Genetic predictors of lifelong medication-use patterns in cardiometabolic diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36653479

    ABSTRACT: Little is known about the genetic determinants of medication use in preventing cardiometabolic diseases. Using the Finnish nationwide drug purchase registry with follow-up since 1995, we performed genome-wide association analyses of longitudinal patterns of medication use in hyperlipidemia, hypertension and type 2 diabetes in up to 193,933 individuals (55% women) in the FinnGen study. In meta-analyses of up to 567,671 individuals combining FinnGen with the Estonian Biobank and the UK Biobank, we discovered 333 independent loci (P < 5 × 10-9) associated with medication use. Fine-mapping revealed 494 95% credible sets associated with the total number of medication purchases, changes in medication combinations or treatment discontinuation, including 46 credible sets in 40

  • High Blood Pressure and Intraocular Pressure: A Mendelian Randomization Study - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35762941

    ABSTRACT: Purpose To test for causality with regard to the association between blood pressure (BP) and intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma. Methods Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with BP were identified in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of 526,001 participants of European ancestry. These SNPs were used to assess the BP versus IOP relationship in a distinct sample (n = 70,832) whose corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) was measured. To evaluate the BP versus primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) relationship, additional Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were conducted using published GWAS summary statistics. Results Observational analysis revealed a linear relationship between BP traits and IOPcc, with a +0.28 mm Hg increase in IOPcc per 10-mm Hg inc

  • Multi-trait association analysis reveals shared genetic loci between Alzheimer's disease and cardiovascular traits - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39537608

    ABSTRACT: Several cardiovascular traits and diseases co-occur with Alzheimer's disease. We mapped their shared genetic architecture using multi-trait genome-wide association studies. Subsequent fine-mapping and colocalisation highlighted 16 genetic loci associated with both Alzheimer's and cardiovascular diseases. We prioritised rs11786896, which colocalised with Alzheimer's disease, atrial fibrillation and expression of PLEC in the heart left ventricle, and rs7529220, which colocalised with Alzheimer's disease, atrial fibrillation and expression of C1Q family genes. Single-cell RNA-sequencing data, co-expression network and protein-protein interaction analyses provided evidence for different mechanisms of PLEC, which is upregulated in left ventricular endothelium and cardiomyocyte
