  • Trans-ethnic and ancestry-specific blood-cell genetics in 746,667 individuals from 5 global populations - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32888493

    ABSTRACT: SUMMARY Most loci identified by GWAS have been found in populations of European ancestry (EUR). In trans-ethnic meta-analyses for 15 hematological traits in 746,667 participants, including 184,535 non-EUR individuals, we identified 5,552 trait-variant associations at P<5×10−9, including 71 novel loci not found in EUR populations. We also identified 28 additional novel variants in ancestry-specific, non-EUR meta-analyses, including an IL7 missense variant in South Asians associated with lymphocyte count in vivo and IL7 secretion levels in vitro. Fine-mapping prioritized variants annotated as functional, and generated 95% credible sets that were 30% smaller when using the trans-ethnic as opposed to the EUR-only results. We explored the clinical significance and predictive value

  • Genome-wide associations for birth weight and correlations with adult disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 27680694

    ABSTRACT: Birth weight (BW) is influenced by both foetal and maternal factors and in observational studies is reproducibly associated with future risk of adult metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease. These lifecourse associations have often been attributed to the impact of an adverse early life environment. We performed a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of BW in 153,781 individuals, identifying 60 loci where foetal genotype was associated with BW (P <5x10-8). Overall, ˜15% of variance in BW could be captured by assays of foetal genetic variation. Using genetic association alone, we found strong inverse genetic correlations between BW and systolic blood pressure (rg=-0.22, P =5.5x10-13), T2D (rg=-0.27, P =1.1x10-6) an
