  • Genomic atlas of the plasma metabolome prioritizes metabolites implicated in human diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36635386

    ABSTRACT: Metabolic processes can influence disease risk and provide therapeutic targets. By conducting genome-wide association studies of 1,091 blood metabolites and 309 metabolite ratios, we identified associations with 690 metabolites at 248 loci; and associations with 143 metabolite ratios at 69 loci. Integrating metabolite-gene and gene expression information identified 94 effector genes for 109 metabolites and 48 metabolite ratios. Using Mendelian Randomization (MR), we identified 22 metabolites and 20 metabolite ratios having estimated causal effect on 12 traits and diseases, including orotate for estimated bone mineral density, alpha-hydroxyisovalerate for body mass index and ergothioneine for inflammatory bowel disease and asthma. We further measured orotate level in a separate co

  • Genomewide Association Study of Statin‐Induced Myopathy in Patients Recruited Using the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31220337

    ABSTRACT: Statins can be associated with myopathy. We have undertaken a genomewide association study (GWAS) to discover and validate genetic risk factors for statin‐induced myopathy in a "real‐world" setting. One hundred thirty‐five patients with statin myopathy recruited via the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink were genotyped using the Illumina OmniExpress Exome version 1.0 Bead Chip and compared with the Wellcome Trust Case‐Control Consortium (n = 2,501). Nominally statistically significant single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) signals in the GWAS (P < 5 × 10−5) were further evaluated in several independent cohorts (comprising 332 cases and 449 drug‐tolerant controls). Only one (rs4149056/c.521C>T in the SLCO1B1 gene) SNP was genomewide significant in the seve

Drug interactions

  • simvastatin-induced myopathy risk Moderate

    SLCO1B1 encodes a hepatic transporter that affects statin metabolism; rs11519272 increases myopathy risk with simvastatin

    if prescribed simvastatin, discuss with doctor about alternative statins
