Genetic analysis of quantitative traits in the Japanese population links cell types to complex human diseases. - Nature genetics (2019) · Kanai M, Akiyama M, Takahashi A, Matoba N, Momozawa Y, Ikeda M, Iwata N, Ikegawa S, Hirata M, Matsuda K, Kubo M, Okada Y, Kamatani Y · PubMed 29403010
Clinical measurements can be viewed as useful intermediate phenotypes to promote understanding of complex human diseases. To acquire comprehensive insights into the underlying genetics, here we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 58 quantitative traits in 162,255 Japanese individuals. Overall, we identified 1,407 trait-associated loci (P < 5.0 × 10 ), 679 of which were novel. By incorporating 32 additional GWAS results for complex diseases and traits in Japanese individuals, we further highlighted pleiotropy, genetic correlations, and cell-type specificity across quantitative traits and diseases, which substantially expands the current understanding of the associated genetics and biology. This study identified both shared polygenic effects and cell-type specificity

Translational genomics of osteoarthritis in 1,962,069 individuals - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40205036
ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis is the third most rapidly growing health condition associated with disability, after dementia and diabetes. By 2050, the total number of patients with osteoarthritis is estimated to reach 1 billion worldwide. As no disease-modifying treatments exist for osteoarthritis, a better understanding of disease aetiopathology is urgently needed. Here we perform a genome-wide association study meta-analyses across up to 489,975 cases and 1,472,094 controls, establishing 962 independent associations, 513 of which have not been previously reported. Using single-cell multiomics data, we identify signal enrichment in embryonic skeletal development pathways. We integrate orthogonal lines of evidence, including transcriptome, proteome and epigenome profiles of primary joint tiss

Multivariate genomic analysis of 5 million people elucidates the genetic architecture of shared components of the metabolic syndrome - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39349817
ABSTRACT: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex hereditary condition comprising various metabolic traits as risk factors. Although the genetics of individual MetS components have been investigated actively through large-scale genome-wide association studies, the conjoint genetic architecture has not been fully elucidated. Here, we performed the largest multivariate genome-wide association study of MetS in Europe (nobserved = 4,947,860) by leveraging genetic correlation between MetS components. We identified 1,307 genetic loci associated with MetS that were enriched primarily in brain tissues. Using transcriptomic data, we identified 11 genes associated strongly with MetS. Our phenome-wide association and Mendelian randomization analyses highlighted associations of MetS with diverse di

Lifestyle context
Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.
Discuss with your doctor
-
management strategies for elevated serum uric acid Moderate
genetic variant associated with elevated serum uric acid; early management can prevent gout and kidney complications
if serum uric acid elevated, discuss management options with doctor
Exercise
-
strengthening exercises for hip and knee joints Moderate
muscle strength protects joints and reduces osteoarthritis progression risk
2-3 times weekly resistance training targeting hip and knee stabilizer muscles
Lifestyle
-
maintain healthy body weight Moderate
excess weight increases mechanical stress on weight-bearing joints at genetic risk for osteoarthritis
maintain BMI < 25 or discuss ideal weight with doctor
Screening
-
hip and knee joint health baseline assessment Moderate
genetic variant strongly associated with increased osteoarthritis requiring joint replacement
baseline radiographic assessment by age 40-50, then every 2-3 years
-
serum uric acid levels Moderate
genetic variant associated with elevated serum uric acid which increases gout and kidney stone risk
baseline serum uric acid test, then annually or if symptoms develop
