Discovery of novel ancestry specific genes for androgens and hypogonadism in Million Veteran Program Men - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40316537
ABSTRACT: Given the various roles of testosterone in men's health, we conducted a multi-ancestral genetic analysis of total testosterone, free testosterone, SHBG, and hypogonadism in men within the Million Veteran Program (MVP). Here we identified 157 significant testosterone genetic variants, of which 8 have significant ancestry-specific associations. These variants implicate several genes, including SERPINF2, PRPF8, BAIAP2L1, SHBG, PRMT6, and PPIF, related to liver function. Genetic regulators of testosterone have cell type-specific effects in the testes, liver, and adrenal gland and are associated with disease risk. We conducted a meta-analysis amongst ancestry groups to identify 188 variants significantly associated with testosterone, of which 22 are novel associations. We constructe

GWAS and multi-omics integrative analysis reveal novel loci and their molecular mechanisms for circulating fatty acids - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40545721
ABSTRACT: Summary Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic loci associated with the circulating levels of fatty acids (FAs), but the biological mechanisms of these genetic associations remain largely unexplored. Here, we conducted GWAS to identify additional genetic loci for 19 circulating FA traits in UK Biobank participants of European ancestry (n = 239,268) and five other ancestries (n = 508-4,663). We leveraged the GWAS findings to characterize genetic correlations and colocalized regions among FAs, explore sex differences, examine FA loci influenced by lipoprotein metabolism, and apply statistical fine-mapping to pinpoint putative causal variants. We integrated GWAS signals with multi-omics quantitative trait loci (QTL) to reveal intermediate molecular
