  • Biological Insights Into Muscular Strength: Genetic Findings in the UK Biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 29691431

    ABSTRACT: We performed a large genome-wide association study to discover genetic variation associated with muscular strength, and to evaluate shared genetic aetiology with and causal effects of muscular strength on several health indicators. In our discovery analysis of 223,315 individuals, we identified 101 loci associated with grip strength (P <5 × 10−8). Of these, 64 were associated (P < 0.01 and consistent direction) also in the replication dataset (N = 111,610). eQTL analyses highlighted several genes known to play a role in neuro-developmental disorders or brain function, and the results from meta-analysis showed a significant enrichment of gene expression of brain-related transcripts. Further, we observed inverse genetic correlations of grip strength with cardiometa

  • Exploring the genetic architecture of multiple long-term conditions using a genome-wide association study in the UK Biobank population - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41353206

    ABSTRACT: The prevalence of multiple long-term conditions (MLTC) is increasing. It is essential to develop strategies to prevent and manage MLTC; however, the biological mechanisms underlying MLTC are not yet clearly understood. We used UK Biobank data as part of the ADMISSION research collaborative to identify genetic drivers for MLTC. We used the UK Biobank (UKBB) self-reported illness data to characterise MLTC (defined as two or more long-term conditions) using 51 common disease labels. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted for MLTC and complex MLTC (complex MLTC was defined as having three or more diseases from the 51 self-reported diseases, with these three diseases additionally belonging to different body systems), and post-GWAS analyses were conducted to explore the g
