  • Gene-by-environment interactions modulate the infant gut microbiota in asthma and atopy. - The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology (2025) · Stickley SA, Fang ZY, Ambalavanan A, Zhang Y, Zacharias AM, Petersen C, Dai D, Azad MB, Brook JR, Mandhane PJ, Simons E, Moraes TJ, Surette MG, Turvey SE, Subbarao P, Duan Q · PubMed 40187613

    Gut microbiota has been associated with health and susceptibility to childhood diseases, including asthma and allergies. However, the genomic factors contributing to interindividual variations in gut microbiota remain poorly understood. We sought to integrate host genomics with early-life exposures to investigate main and interaction effects on gut microbiota during the first year of life. In addition, we identified gut microbes associated with childhood respiratory (asthma, wheeze) and atopic (atopic dermatitis, food/inhalant sensitization) outcomes. We leveraged microbiome data from infant stool at ages 3 months (N = 779) and 1 year (N = 770) from the CHILD Cohort Study. We identified microbial taxa and co-occurring network clusters associated with asthma and atopy by age 5 years. Genome

  • Genetic and observational associations of lung function with gastrointestinal tract diseases: pleiotropic and mendelian randomization analysis - Respiratory research (2024) · Jiang M, Hao X, Jiang Y, Li S, Wang C, Cheng S · PubMed 38102678

    ABSTRACT: Background The two-way communications along the gut-lung axis influence the immune function in both gut and lung. However, the shared genetic characteristics of lung function with gastrointestinal tract (GIT) diseases remain to be investigated. Methods We first investigated the genetic correlations between three lung function traits and four GIT diseases. Second, we illustrated the genetic overlap by genome-wide pleiotropic analysis (PLACO) and further pinpointed the relevant tissue and cell types by partitioning heritability. Furthermore, we proposed pleiotropic genes as potential drug targets by drug database mining. Finally, we evaluated the causal relationships by epidemiologic observational study and Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Results We found lung function and G

  • A cross-disorder study to identify causal relationships, shared genetic variants, and genes across 21 digestive disorders - iScience (2023) · Jiang Y, Zhang Y, Ju C, Zhang R, Li H, Chen F, Zhu Y, Shen S, Wei Y · PubMed 37965154

    ABSTRACT: Summary Digestive disorders are a significant contributor to the global burden of disease and seriously affect human quality of life. Research has already confirmed the presence of pleiotropic genetic loci among digestive disorders, and studies have explored shared genetic factors among pan-cancers, including various malignant digestive disorders. However, most cross-phenotype studies within the digestive tract system have been limited to a few traits, with no systematic coverage of common benign and malignant digestive disorders. Here, we analyzed data from the UK Biobank to investigate 21 digestive disorders, exploring the genetic correlations and causal relationships between diseases, as well as the common genetic factors and potential biological pathways driving these relatio
