  • Joint analysis of genome-wide cross-trait and multi-omics reveals molecular mechanisms of inflammatory bowel disease and nominates its novel therapeutic genes. - FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (2025) · Zhu Z, Wei R, Li H, Wang X, He G, Du M, Tan S, Cheng L · PubMed 39792054

    Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with the two predominant endophenotypes-Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC)-represents a group of chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory conditions. Since most genetic associations with IBD are often limited to independent subtypes, we reported a genome-wide association study (GWAS) cross-trait analysis combined with CD and UC to enhance statistical power. Initially, we detected 256 association signals at 54 genomic susceptibility loci and further characterized the functionality of variants within these regions. Subsequently, we revealed tissue and cell-specific heritability enrichment, particularly in whole blood, small intestine terminal ileum, spleen, lung, and colon transverse. Leveraging multi-omics datasets, we adopted a two-pronged approa

  • Differences and commonalities in the genetic architecture of protein quantitative trait loci in European and Arab populations - Human molecular genetics (2023) · Thareja G, Belkadi A, Arnold M, Albagha OME, Graumann J, Schmidt F, Grallert H, Peters A, Gieger C, Consortium TQGPR, Suhre K · PubMed 36168886

    ABSTRACT: Abstract Polygenic scores (PGS) can identify individuals at risk of adverse health events and guide genetics-based personalized medicine. However, it is not clear how well PGS translate between different populations, limiting their application to well-studied ethnicities. Proteins are intermediate traits linking genetic predisposition and environmental factors to disease, with numerous blood circulating protein levels representing functional readouts of disease-related processes. We hypothesized that studying the genetic architecture of a comprehensive set of blood-circulating proteins between a European and an Arab population could shed fresh light on the translatability of PGS to understudied populations. We therefore conducted a genome-wide association study with whole-genome
