  • Genetic Correlation, Shared Loci, and Causal Association Between Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin and Bone Mineral Density: Insights From a Large-Scale Genomewide Cross-Trait Analysis. - Journal of bone and mineral research : the official journal of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (2023) · Qu Y, Xiao C, Wu X, Zhu J, Qin C, He L, Cui H, Zhang L, Zhang W, Yang C, Yao Y, Li J, Liu Z, Zhang B, Wang W, Jiang X · PubMed 37615194

    Although the impact of sex hormones on bone metabolism is well-documented, effect of their primary modulator, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), remains inconclusive. This study aims to elucidate the genetic overlap between SHBG and heel estimated bone mineral density (eBMD), a widely-accepted tool for osteoporosis management and fracture risk assessment. Using summary statistics from large-scale genomewide association studies conducted for SHBG (N = 370,125), SHBG adjusted for body mass index (SHBGa, N = 368,929), and eBMD (N = 426,824), a comprehensive genomewide cross-trait approach was performed to quantify global and local genetic correlations, identify pleiotropic loci, and infer causal associations. A significant overall inverse genetic correlation was found for SHBG a

  • Genetic architecture of orbital telorism - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34791242

    ABSTRACT: Abstract The interocular distance, or orbital telorism, is a distinctive craniofacial trait that also serves as a clinically informative measure. While its extremes, hypo- and hypertelorism, have been linked to monogenic disorders and are often syndromic, little is known about the genetic determinants of interocular distance within the general population. We derived orbital telorism measures from cranial magnetic resonance imaging by calculating the distance between the eyeballs' centre of gravity, which showed a good reproducibility with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.991 (95% confidence interval 0.985-0.994). Heritability estimates were 76% (standard error = 12%) with a family-based method (N = 364) and 39% (standard error = 2.4%) with a single nucle
