  • Whole exome sequencing identified six novel genes for depressive symptoms. - Molecular psychiatry (2025) · Li ZY, Fei CJ, Yin RY, Kang JJ, Ma Q, He XY, Wu XR, Zhao YJ, Zhang W, Liu WS, Wu BS, Yang L, Zhu Y, Feng JF, Yu JT, Cheng W · PubMed 39472661

    Previous genome-wide association studies of depression have primarily focused on common variants, limiting our comprehensive understanding of the genetic architecture. In contrast, whole-exome sequencing can capture rare coding variants, helping to explore the phenotypic consequences of altering protein-coding genes. Here, we conducted a large-scale exome-wide association study on 296,199 participants from the UK Biobank, assessing their depressive symptom scores through the Patient Health Questionnaire-4. We identified 22 genes associated with depressive symptoms, including 6 newly discovered genes (TRIM27, UBD, SVOP, ADGRB2, IRF2BPL, and ANKRD12). Both ontology enrichment analysis and plasma proteomics association analysis consistently revealed that the identified genes were associated w

  • Genome-wide association analyses of posttraumatic stress disorder and its symptom subdomains in the Million Veteran Program - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33510476

    ABSTRACT: We conducted genome-wide association analyses in over 250,000 participants of European and African ancestry from the Million Veteran Program using electronic health record-validated posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) diagnosis and quantitative symptom phenotypes. Applying genome-wide multiple testing correction, we identified three significant loci in European case-control analyses and 15 loci in quantitative symptom analyses. Genomic structural equation modeling indicated tight coherence of a PTSD symptom factor that shares genetic variance with a distinct internalizing (mood-anxiety-neuroticism) factor. Partitioned heritability indicated enrichment in several cortical and subcortical regions, and imputed genetically regulated gene expression in these regions was used to ident

  • Insight into the genetic architecture of back pain and its risk factors from a study of 509,000 individuals - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30747904

    ABSTRACT: Back pain (BP) is a common condition of major social importance and poorly understood pathogenesis. Combining data from the UK Biobank and CHARGE consortium cohorts allowed us to perform a very large GWAS (total N = 509,070) and examine the genetic correlation and pleiotropy between BP and its clinical and psychosocial risk factors. We identified and replicated three BP associated loci, including one novel region implicating SPOCK2/CHST3 genes. We provide evidence for pleiotropic effects of genetic factors underlying BP, height, and intervertebral disc problems. We also identified independent genetic correlations between BP and depression symptoms, neuroticism, sleep disturbance, overweight, and smoking. A significant enrichment for genes involved in central nervous system and sk

  • Genomics and phenomics of body mass index reveals a complex disease network - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36581621

    ABSTRACT: Elevated body mass index (BMI) is heritable and associated with many health conditions that impact morbidity and mortality. The study of the genetic association of BMI across a broad range of common disease conditions offers the opportunity to extend current knowledge regarding the breadth and depth of adiposity-related diseases. We identify 906 (364 novel) and 41 (6 novel) genome-wide significant loci for BMI among participants of European (N~1.1 million) and African (N~100,000) ancestry, respectively. Using a BMI genetic risk score including 2446 variants, 316 diagnoses are associated in the Million Veteran Program, with 96.5% showing increased risk. A co-morbidity network analysis reveals seven disease communities containing multiple interconnected diseases associated with BMI
