  • Combining cross-sectional and longitudinal genomic approaches to identify determinants of cognitive and physical decline - Nature communications (2025) · Schoeler T, Pingault JB, Kutalik Z · PubMed 40374629

    ABSTRACT: Large-scale genomic studies focusing on the genetic contribution to human aging have mostly relied on cross-sectional data. With the release of longitudinally curated aging phenotypes by the UK Biobank (UKBB), it is now possible to study aging over time at genome-wide scale. In this work, we evaluated the suitability of competing models of change in realistic simulation settings, performed genome-wide association scans on simulation-validated measures of age-related deweekcline, and followed up with LD-score regression and Mendelian Randomization (MR) analyses. Focusing on global cognitive and physical function, we observed marked differences between baseline function (θ) and accelerated decline (Δ). Both outcomes showed distinct heritability levels (e.g., 31.38% versus 3.15%

  • Genome-wide association study and polygenic score assessment of insulin resistance - Frontiers in endocrinology (2024) · Aliyu U, Umlai UI, Toor SM, Elashi AA, Al-Sarraj YA, Abou Samra AB, Suhre K, Albagha OME · PubMed 38938516

    ABSTRACT: Insulin resistance (IR) and beta cell dysfunction are the major drivers of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) on IR have been predominantly conducted in European populations, while Middle Eastern populations remain largely underrepresented. We conducted a GWAS on the indices of IR (HOMA2-IR) and beta cell function (HOMA2-%B) in 6,217 non-diabetic individuals from the Qatar Biobank (QBB; Discovery cohort; n = 2170, Replication cohort; n = 4047) with and without body mass index (BMI) adjustment. We also developed polygenic scores (PGS) for HOMA2-IR and compared their performance with a previously derived PGS for HOMA-IR (PGS003470). We replicated 11 loci that have been previously associated with HOMA-IR and 24 loci that have been associated with HOMA-%B,
