  • Genetics of 35 blood and urine biomarkers in the UK Biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33462484

    ABSTRACT: Clinical laboratory tests are a critical component of the continuum of care. We evaluate the genetic basis of 35 blood and urine laboratory measurements in the UK Biobank (n=363,228 individuals). We identify 1,857 loci associated with at least one trait, containing 3,374 fine-mapped associations, and additional sets of large-effect (> 0.1 sd) protein-altering, HLA, and copy-number variant associations. Through Mendelian Randomization analysis, we discover 51 causal relationships, including previously known agonistic effects of urate on gout and cystatin C on stroke. Finally, we develop polygenic risk scores for each biomarker and built 'multi-PRS' models for diseases using 35 PRSs simultaneously, which improved chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, gout, and alcoholic cirr

  • Blood metabolic biomarkers and colorectal cancer risk: results from large prospective cohort and Mendelian randomisation analyses - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40307439

    ABSTRACT: Background Emerging evidence suggests metabolic dysregulation may contribute to colorectal cancer (CRC) aetiology. We aimed to identify pre-diagnostic metabolic biomarkers for CRC risk in 230,420 UK Biobank participants. Methods Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to quantify 249 metabolic biomarkers in plasma samples collected at baseline. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for associations of metabolic biomarkers with CRC risk after adjusting for potential confounders. To infer the potential causality of biomarkers that were associated with CRC independent of the others, we performed genome-wide association analyses among 199,732 UK Biobank participants of European ancestry to identify biomarker-as

  • GWAS and multi-omics integrative analysis reveal novel loci and their molecular mechanisms for circulating fatty acids - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40545721

    ABSTRACT: Summary Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic loci associated with the circulating levels of fatty acids (FAs), but the biological mechanisms of these genetic associations remain largely unexplored. Here, we conducted GWAS to identify additional genetic loci for 19 circulating FA traits in UK Biobank participants of European ancestry (n = 239,268) and five other ancestries (n = 508-4,663). We leveraged the GWAS findings to characterize genetic correlations and colocalized regions among FAs, explore sex differences, examine FA loci influenced by lipoprotein metabolism, and apply statistical fine-mapping to pinpoint putative causal variants. We integrated GWAS signals with multi-omics quantitative trait loci (QTL) to reveal intermediate molecular
