  • Plasma proteome variation and its genetic determinants in children and adolescents - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39972214

    ABSTRACT: Our current understanding of the determinants of plasma proteome variation during pediatric development remains incomplete. Here, we show that genetic variants, age, sex and body mass index significantly influence this variation. Using a streamlined and highly quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics workflow, we analyzed plasma from 2,147 children and adolescents, identifying 1,216 proteins after quality control. Notably, the levels of 70% of these were associated with at least one of the aforementioned factors, with protein levels also being predictive. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) regulated at least one-third of the proteins; between a few percent and up to 30-fold. Together with excellent replication in an additional 1,000 children and 558 adults, this reveals substa

  • Characterizing prostate cancer risk through multi-ancestry genome-wide discovery of 187 novel risk variants - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37945903

    [INTRO] Introduction [INTRO] The transferability and clinical value of genetic risk scores (GRS) across populations remains limited due to an imbalance in genetic studies across ancestrally diverse populations. We conducted a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 156,319 prostate cancer cases and 788,443 controls of European, African, Asian, and Hispanic men, reflecting a 57% increase in the number of non-European cases over previous prostate cancer GWAS. We identified 187 novel risk variants for prostate cancer, increasing the total number of risk variants to 451. An externally replicated multi-ancestry GRS was associated with risk that ranged from 1.8 (per standard deviation (SD)) in African ancestry men to 2.2 in European ancestry men. The GRS was associated with a gre
