  • Multi-ancestry genome-wide meta-analysis identifies novel basal cell carcinoma loci and shared genetic effects with squamous cell carcinoma - Communications biology (2024) · Choquet H, Jiang C, Yin J, Kim Y, Hoffmann TJ, Jorgenson E, Asgari MM · PubMed 38182794

    ABSTRACT: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, yet its genetic determinants are incompletely defined. We perform a European ancestry genome-wide association (GWA) meta-analysis and a Hispanic/Latino ancestry GWA meta-analysis and meta-analyze both in a multi-ancestry GWAS meta-analysis of BCC, totaling 50,531 BCC cases and 762,234 controls from four cohorts (GERA, Mass-General Brigham Biobank, UK Biobank, and 23andMe research cohort). Here we identify 122 BCC-associated loci, of which 36 were novel, and subsequently fine-mapped these associations. We also identify an association of the well-known pigment gene SLC45A2 as well as associations at RCC2 and CLPTM1L with BCC in Hispanic/Latinos. We examine these BCC loci for association with cutaneous squa

  • Principled distillation of UK Biobank phenotype data reveals underlying structure in human variation - Nature human behaviour (2024) · Carey CE, Shafee R, Wedow R, Elliott A, Palmer DS, Compitello J, Kanai M, Abbott L, Schultz P, Karczewski KJ, Bryant SC, Cusick CM, Churchhouse C, Howrigan DP, King D, Davey Smith G, Neale BM, Walters RK, Robinson EB · PubMed 38965376

    ABSTRACT: Data within biobanks capture broad yet detailed indices of human variation, but biobank-wide insights can be difficult to extract due to complexity and scale. Here, using large-scale factor analysis, we distill hundreds of variables (diagnoses, assessments and survey items) into 35 latent constructs, using data from unrelated individuals with predominantly estimated European genetic ancestry in UK Biobank. These factors recapitulate known disease classifications, disentangle elements of socioeconomic status, highlight the relevance of psychiatric constructs to health and improve measurement of pro-health behaviours. We go on to demonstrate the power of this approach to clarify genetic signal, enhance discovery and identify associations between underlying phenotypic structure and

  • A cross-population atlas of genetic associations for 220 human phenotypes. - Nature genetics (2021) · Sakaue S, Kanai M, Tanigawa Y, Karjalainen J, Kurki M, Koshiba S, Narita A, Konuma T, Yamamoto K, Akiyama M, Ishigaki K, Suzuki A, Suzuki K, Obara W, Yamaji K, Takahashi K, Asai S, Takahashi Y, Suzuki T, Shinozaki N, Yamaguchi H, Minami S, Murayama S, Yoshimori K, Nagayama S, Obata D, Higashiyama M, Masumoto A, Koretsune Y, Ito K, Terao C, Yamauchi T, Komuro I, Kadowaki T, Tamiya G, Yamamoto M, Nakamura Y, Kubo M, Murakami Y, Yamamoto K, Kamatani Y, Palotie A, Rivas MA, Daly MJ, Matsuda K, Okada Y · PubMed 34594039

    Current genome-wide association studies do not yet capture sufficient diversity in populations and scope of phenotypes. To expand an atlas of genetic associations in non-European populations, we conducted 220 deep-phenotype genome-wide association studies (diseases, biomarkers and medication usage) in BioBank Japan (n = 179,000), by incorporating past medical history and text-mining of electronic medical records. Meta-analyses with the UK Biobank and FinnGen (n = 628,000) identified ~5,000 new loci, which improved the resolution of the genomic map of human traits. This atlas elucidated the landscape of pleiotropy as represented by the major histocompatibility complex locus, where we conducted HLA fine-mapping. Finally, we performed statistical decomposition of matrices of phenome-wid

  • Meta-analysis of 208370 East Asians identifies 113 susceptibility loci for systemic lupus erythematosus - Annals of the rheumatic diseases (2021) · Yin X, Kim K, Suetsugu H, Bang SY, Wen L, Koido M, Ha E, Liu L, Sakamoto Y, Jo S, Leng RX, Otomo N, Laurynenka V, Kwon YC, Sheng Y, Sugano N, Hwang MY, Li W, Mukai M, Yoon K, Cai M, Ishigaki K, Chung WT, Huang H, Takahashi D, Lee SS, Wang M, Karino K, Shim SC, Zheng X, Miyamura T, Kang YM, Ye D, Nakamura J, Suh CH, Tang Y, Motomura G, Park YB, Ding H, Kuroda T, Choe JY, Li C, Niiro H, Park Y, Shen C, Miyamoto T, Ahn GY, Fei W, Takeuchi T, Shin JM, Li K, Kawaguchi Y, Lee YK, Wang Y, Amano K, Park DJ, Yang W, Tada Y, Yamaji K, Shimizu M, Atsumi T, Suzuki A, Sumida T, Okada Y, Matsuda K, Matsuo K, Kochi Y, Kottyan LC, Weirauch MT, Parameswaran S, Eswar S, Salim H, Chen X, Yamamoto K, Harley JB, Ohmura K, Kim TH, Yang S, Yamamoto T, Kim BJ, Shen N, Ikegawa S, Lee HS, Zhang X, Terao C, Cui Y, Bae SC · PubMed 33272962

    ABSTRACT: Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disorder, has been associated with nearly 100 susceptibility loci. Nevertheless, these loci only partially explain SLE heritability and their putative causal variants are rarely prioritised, which make challenging to elucidate disease biology. To detect new SLE loci and causal variants, we performed the largest genome-wide meta-analysis for SLE in East Asian populations. Methods We newly genotyped 10 029 SLE cases and 180 167 controls and subsequently meta-analysed them jointly with 3348 SLE cases and 14 826 controls from published studies in East Asians. We further applied a Bayesian statistical approach to localise the putative causal variants for SLE associations. Results We identified 113 genetic regions includ

  • Leveraging Polygenic Functional Enrichment to Improve GWAS Power. - American journal of human genetics (2019) · Kichaev G, Bhatia G, Loh PR, Gazal S, Burch K, Freund MK, Schoech A, Pasaniuc B, Price AL · PubMed 30595370

    Functional genomics data has the potential to increase GWAS power by identifying SNPs that have a higher prior probability of association. Here, we introduce a method that leverages polygenic functional enrichment to incorporate coding, conserved, regulatory, and LD-related genomic annotations into association analyses. We show via simulations with real genotypes that the method, functionally informed novel discovery of risk loci (FINDOR), correctly controls the false-positive rate at null loci and attains a 9%-38% increase in the number of independent associations detected at causal loci, depending on trait polygenicity and sample size. We applied FINDOR to 27 independent complex traits and diseases from the interim UK Biobank release (average N = 130K). Averaged across traits, we attaine

  • GWAS of 89,283 individuals identifies genetic variants associated with self-reporting of being a morning person - Nature communications (2016) · Hu Y, Shmygelska A, Tran D, Eriksson N, Tung JY, Hinds DA · PubMed 26835600

    ABSTRACT: Circadian rhythms are a nearly universal feature of living organisms and affect almost every biological process. Our innate preference for mornings or evenings is determined by the phase of our circadian rhythms. We conduct a genome-wide association analysis of self-reported morningness, followed by analyses of biological pathways and related phenotypes. We identify 15 significantly associated loci, including seven near established circadian genes (rs12736689 near RGS16, P=7.0 × 10−18; rs9479402 near VIP, P=3.9 × 10−11; rs55694368 near PER2, P=2.6 × 10−9; rs35833281 near HCRTR2, P=3.7 × 10−9; rs11545787 near RASD1, P=1.4 × 10−8; rs11121022 near PER3, P=2.0 × 10−8; rs9565309 near FBXL3, P=3.5 × 10−8. Circadian and phototransduction pathways are enriched in our
