  • Combining cross-sectional and longitudinal genomic approaches to identify determinants of cognitive and physical decline - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40374629

    ABSTRACT: Large-scale genomic studies focusing on the genetic contribution to human aging have mostly relied on cross-sectional data. With the release of longitudinally curated aging phenotypes by the UK Biobank (UKBB), it is now possible to study aging over time at genome-wide scale. In this work, we evaluated the suitability of competing models of change in realistic simulation settings, performed genome-wide association scans on simulation-validated measures of age-related deweekcline, and followed up with LD-score regression and Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses. Focusing on global cognitive and physical function, we observed marked differences between baseline function (θ) and accelerated decline (Δ). Both outcomes showed distinct heritability levels (e.g., 31.38% versus 3.15%

  • Identification of 371 genetic variants for age at first sex and birth linked to externalising behaviour - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34211149

    ABSTRACT: Age at first sexual intercourse (AFS) and age at first birth (AFB) have implications for health and evolutionary fitness. In this genome-wide association study (AFS, N=387,338; AFB, N=542,901), we identify 371 SNPs, 11 sex-specific, with a 5-6% polygenic score (PGS) prediction. Heritability of AFB shifted from 9% [CI=4-14] for women born in 1940 to 22% [CI=19-25] in 1965. Signals are driven by the genetics of reproductive biology and externalising behaviour, with key genes related to follicle stimulating hormone (FSHB), implantation (ESR1), infertility, and spermatid differentiation. Our findings suggest that Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome may lead to later AFB, linking with infertility. Late AFB is associated with parental longevity, and reduced incidence of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) a
