  • Genome-wide Association Study Identifies 27 Loci Influencing Concentrations of Circulating Cytokines and Growth Factors. - American journal of human genetics (2017) · Ahola-Olli AV, Würtz P, Havulinna AS, Aalto K, Pitkänen N, Lehtimäki T, Kähönen M, Lyytikäinen LP, Raitoharju E, Seppälä I, Sarin AP, Ripatti S, Palotie A, Perola M, Viikari JS, Jalkanen S, Maksimow M, Salomaa V, Salmi M, Kettunen J, Raitakari OT · PubMed 27989323

    Circulating cytokines and growth factors are regulators of inflammation and have been implicated in autoimmune and metabolic diseases. In this genome-wide association study (GWAS) of up to 8,293 Finns we identified 27 genome-widely significant loci (p < 1.2 × 10 ) for one or more cytokines. Fifteen of the associated variants had expression quantitative trait loci in whole blood. We provide genetic instruments to clarify the causal roles of cytokine signaling and upstream inflammation in immune-related and other chronic diseases. We further link inflammatory markers with variants previously associated with autoimmune diseases such as Crohn disease, multiple sclerosis, and ulcerative colitis and hereby elucidate the molecular mechanisms underpinning these diseases and suggest potential dru

  • Genome-wide association studies of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders stratified by sex, onset age, and Apolipoprotein E genotype reveal novel risk loci in African Americans - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40708016

    ABSTRACT: Background Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk variants have been identified in European ancestry cohorts that have stronger effects at certain ages, in individuals with a specific sex, or in those with specific isoforms of APOE, the strongest AD risk locus. However, sample sizes in African ancestry (AA) cohorts have been underpowered to perform stratified analyses. Methods We generated genome-wide association study datasets stratified by sex, age at onset (< 75 vs ≥ 75), and APOE-ε4 carrier status in AA cohorts from MVP and the Alzheimer's Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC). Outcomes in MVP were AD and related dementias (ADRD; n = 4073 cases and 19,648 controls) and proxy dementia (i.e., reported dementia in a parent, n = 6216 cases and 21,566 controls) while ADGC

  • Sex-biased genetic regulation of inflammatory proteins in the Dutch population - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38326779

    ABSTRACT: Background Significant differences in immune responses, prevalence or susceptibility of diseases and treatment responses have been described between males and females. Despite this, sex-differentiation analysis of the genetic architecture of inflammatory proteins is largely unexplored. We performed sex-stratified meta-analysis after protein quantitative trait loci (pQTL) mapping using inflammatory biomarkers profiled using targeted proteomics (Olink inflammatory panel) of two population-based cohorts of Europeans. Results Even though, around 67% of the pQTLs demonstrated shared effect between sexes, colocalization analysis identified two loci in the males (LINC01135 and ITGAV) and three loci (CNOT10, SRD5A2, and LILRB5) in the females with evidence of sex-dependent modulation by

  • Alzheimer's disease genetic predisposition Moderate

    The rs11657269 A-allele is associated with increased Alzheimer's disease and dementia risk in a large cohort of 56917 individuals.

    • GWAS_CATALOG:40708016

Screening

  • Baseline and periodic cognitive screening Moderate

    A-allele carriers have increased Alzheimer's disease risk; early detection of cognitive changes enables earlier intervention.
