Genome-wide association studies in a large Korean cohort identify quantitative trait loci for 36 traits and illuminate their genetic architectures - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40436827
ABSTRACT: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have predominantly focused on European ancestry populations, limiting biological discoveries across diverse populations. Here we report GWAS findings from 153,950 individuals across 36 quantitative traits in the Korean Cancer Prevention Study-II (KCPS2) Biobank. We discovered 301 previously unreported genetic loci in KCPS2, including an association between thyroid-stimulating hormone and CD36. Meta-analysis with the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study, Biobank Japan, Taiwan Biobank, and UK Biobank identified 4588 loci that were not significant in any contributing GWAS. We describe differences in genetic architectures across these East Asian and European samples. We also highlight East Asian specific associations, including a known pleiotrop

Bloodwork
-
fasting blood glucose screening Moderate
This SNP is associated with higher fasting blood glucose levels; periodic monitoring helps identify trajectory and assess prediabetes risk
Consider fasting glucose testing every 1-3 years, or annually if family history of diabetes

Discuss with your doctor
-
personalized glucose management strategies Moderate
Genetic predisposition to elevated fasting glucose warrants discussion of optimization strategies tailored to this specific risk
Discuss personalized diet, exercise, and monitoring frequency based on current glucose levels and family history
