  • Genome-wide characterization of circulating metabolic biomarkers - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38448586

    ABSTRACT: Genome-wide association analyses using high-throughput metabolomics platforms have led to novel insights into the biology of human metabolism. This detailed knowledge of the genetic determinants of systemic metabolism has been pivotal for uncovering how genetic pathways influence biological mechanisms and complex diseases. Here we present a genome-wide association study for 233 circulating metabolic traits quantified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in up to 136,016 participants from 33 cohorts. We identify more than 400 independent loci and assign probable causal genes at two-thirds of these using manual curation of plausible biological candidates. We highlight the importance of sample and participant characteristics that can have significant effects on genetic associa

  • Lipidome‐ and Genome‐Wide Study to Understand Sex Differences in Circulatory Lipids - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36193934

    ABSTRACT: Background Despite well‐recognized differences in the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk between men and women, sex differences in risk factors and sex‐specific mechanisms in the pathophysiology of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease remain poorly understood. Lipid metabolism plays a central role in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Understanding sex differences in lipids and their genetic determinants could provide mechanistic insights into sex differences in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and aid in precise risk assessment. Herein, we examined sex differences in plasma lipidome and heterogeneity in genetic influences on lipidome in men and women through sex‐stratified genome‐wide association analyses. Methods and Results We u

  • Decreased Circulating Very Small Low-Density Lipoprotein is Likely Causal for Age-Related Macular Degeneration - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39091897

    ABSTRACT: Objective Abnormal changes in metabolite levels in serum or plasma have been highlighted in several studies in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of irreversible vision loss. Specific changes in lipid profiles are associated with an increased risk of AMD. Metabolites could thus be used to investigate AMD disease mechanisms or incorporated into AMD risk prediction models. However, whether particular metabolites causally affect the disease has yet to be established. Design A 3-tiered analysis of blood metabolites in the United Kingdom (UK) Biobank cohort to identify metabolites that differ in AMD patients with evidence for a putatively causal role in AMD. Participants A total of 72 376 donors from the UK Biobank cohort including participants with AMD (N = 

  • A genetic map of human metabolism across the allele frequency spectrum - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41044249

    ABSTRACT: Genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and allelic breadth. Here we provide a data-driven map of the genetic regulation of circulating small molecules and lipoprotein characteristics (249 traits) measured using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy across the allele frequency spectrum in ~450,000 individuals. Trans-ancestral meta-analyses identify 29,824 locus-metabolite associations mapping to 753 regions with effects largely consistent between men and women and large ancestral groups represented in UK Biobank. We observe and classify extreme genetic pleiotropy, identify regulators of lipid metabolism, and assign effector genes at >100 loci through rare-to-common allelic series. We propose roles for genes less established in metabolic control (
