• Cross-population GWAS and proteomics improve risk prediction and reveal mechanisms in atrial fibrillation - Nature communications (2025) · Yuan S, Chen J, Ruan X, Li Y, Abramowitz SA, Wang L, Jiang F, Xiong Y, Levin MG, Voight BF, Gill D, Burgess S, Åkesson A, Michaëlsson K, Li X, Damrauer SM, Larsson SC · PubMed 40645996

  ABSTRACT: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia with strong genetic components, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets remain incompletely understood. We conducted a cross-population genome-wide meta-analysis of 252,438 AF cases and identified 525 loci that met genome-wide significance. Two loci of PITX2 and ZFHX3 genes were identified as shared across populations of different ancestries. Comprehensive gene prioritization approaches reinforced the role of muscle development and heart contraction while also uncovering additional pathways, including cellular response to transforming growth factor-beta. Population-specific genetic correlations uncovered common and unique circulatory comorbidities between Europeans and Africans. Mendelian ra

  ABSTRACT: SUMMARY Most loci identified by GWAS have been found in populations of European ancestry (EUR). In trans-ethnic meta-analyses for 15 hematological traits in 746,667 participants, including 184,535 non-EUR individuals, we identified 5,552 trait-variant associations at P<5×10−9, including 71 novel loci not found in EUR populations. We also identified 28 additional novel variants in ancestry-specific, non-EUR meta-analyses, including an IL7 missense variant in South Asians associated with lymphocyte count in vivo and IL7 secretion levels in vitro. Fine-mapping prioritized variants annotated as functional, and generated 95% credible sets that were 30% smaller when using the trans-ethnic as opposed to the EUR-only results. We explored the clinical significance and predictive value
