  • Identification of 90 NAFLD GWAS loci and establishment of NAFLD PRS and causal role of NAFLD in coronary artery disease - HGG advances (2025) · Miao Z, Garske KM, Pan DZ, Koka A, Kaminska D, Männistö V, Sinsheimer JS, Pihlajamäki J, Pajukanta P · PubMed 35047847

    ABSTRACT: Summary The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), now also known as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), is rapidly increasing worldwide due to the ongoing obesity epidemic. However, currently the NALFD diagnosis requires non-readily available imaging technologies or liver biopsy, which has drastically limited the sample sizes of NAFLD studies and hampered the discovery of its genetic component. Here we utilized the large UK Biobank (UKB) to accurately estimate the NAFLD status in UKB based on common serum traits and anthropometric measures. Scoring all individuals in UKB for NAFLD risk resulted in 28,396 NAFLD cases and 108,652 healthy individuals at a >90% confidence level. Using this imputed NAFLD status to perform the largest NAFLD

  • Genetic architecture of bone marrow fat fraction implies its involvement in osteoporosis risk - Nature communications (2025) · Wu Z, Yang Y, Ning C, Li J, Cai Y, Li Y, Cao Z, Tian S, Peng J, Ma Q, He C, Xia S, Chen J, Miao X, Li Z, Zhu Y, Chu Q, Tian J · PubMed 40796918

    ABSTRACT: Bone marrow adipose tissue, as a distinct adipose subtype, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of skeletal, metabolic, and hematopoietic disorders. To identify its underlying genetic factors, we utilized a deep learning algorithm capable of quantifying bone marrow fat fraction (BMFF) in the vertebrae and proximal femur using magnetic resonance imaging data of over 38,000 UK Biobank participants. Genome-wide association analyses uncovered 373 significant BMFF-associated variants (P-value < 5 × 10−9), with enrichment in bone remodeling, metabolism, and hematopoiesis pathway. Furthermore, genetic correlation highlighted a significant association between BMFF and skeletal disease. In about 300,000 individuals, polygenic risk scores derived from three proximal femur BMFF

    ABSTRACT: Elevated blood lipid levels are heritable risk factors of cardiovascular disease with varying prevalence worldwide due to differing dietary patterns and medication use. Despite advances in prevention and treatment, particularly through the lowering of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of blood lipid levels have led to important biological and clinical insights, as well as new drug targets, for cardiovascular disease. However, most previous GWAS have been conducted in European ancestry populations and may have missed genetic variants contributing to lipid level variation in other ancestry groups due to differences in allele frequencies, effect sizes, and linkage-disequilibr

    ABSTRACT: Clinical laboratory tests are a critical component of the continuum of care. We evaluate the genetic basis of 35 blood and urine laboratory measurements in the UK Biobank (n=363,228 individuals). We identify 1,857 loci associated with at least one trait, containing 3,374 fine-mapped associations, and additional sets of large-effect (> 0.1 sd) protein-altering, HLA, and copy-number variant associations. Through Mendelian Randomization analysis, we discover 51 causal relationships, including previously known agonistic effects of urate on gout and cystatin C on stroke. Finally, we develop polygenic risk scores for each biomarker and built 'multi-PRS' models for diseases using 35 PRSs simultaneously, which improved chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, gout, and alcoholic cirr

    ABSTRACT: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of medication use may contribute to understanding of disease etiology, could generate new leads relevant for drug discovery and can be used to quantify future risk of medication taking. Here, we conduct GWASs of self-reported medication use from 23 medication categories in approximately 320,000 individuals from the UK Biobank. A total of 505 independent genetic loci that meet stringent criteria (P < 10−8/23) for statistical significance are identified. We investigate the implications of these GWAS findings in relation to biological mechanism, potential drug target identification and genetic risk stratification of disease. Amongst the medication-associated genes are 16 known therapeutic-effect target genes for medications from 9 cat

    ABSTRACT: Many genetic loci affect circulating lipid levels, but it remains unknown whether lifestyle factors, such as physical activity, modify these genetic effects. To identify lipid loci interacting with physical activity, we performed genome-wide analyses of circulating HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in up to 120,979 individuals of European, African, Asian, Hispanic, and Brazilian ancestry, with follow-up of suggestive associations in an additional 131,012 individuals. We find four loci, in/near CLASP1, LHX1, SNTA1, and CNTNAP2, that are associated with circulating lipid levels through interaction with physical activity; higher levels of physical activity enhance the HDL cholesterol-increasing effects of the CLASP1, LHX1, and SNTA1 loci and attenuate the LDL

    ABSTRACT: Given the anthropometric differences between men and women and previous evidence of sex-difference in genetic effects, we conducted a genome-wide search for sexually dimorphic associations with height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist-to-hip-ratio (133,723 individuals) and took forward 348 SNPs into follow-up (additional 137,052 individuals) in a total of 94 studies. Seven loci displayed significant sex-difference (FDR<5%), including four previously established (near GRB14/COBLL1, LYPLAL1/SLC30A10, VEGFA, ADAMTS9) and three novel anthropometric trait loci (near MAP3K1, HSD17B4, PPARG), all of which were genome-wide significant in women (P<5×10−8), but not in men. Sex-differences were apparent only for waist phenotypes, not for height,
