  • Diversity and scale: Genetic architecture of 2068 traits in the VA Million Veteran Program - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39024449

    ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Findings from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have provided foundational knowledge of the genetic basis of disease, facilitating precision approaches for prevention and treatment. Current GWAS results are limited by underrepresentation of individuals from diverse populations, leading to concerns with generalizability regarding our knowledge of the relationships between genes, traits, and disease. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Million Veteran Program (MVP), one of the largest US-based biobanks, addresses this need; 29% of MVP comprises individuals genetically similar to African (AFR), Admixed American (AMR), and East Asian (EAS) reference populations. With over 635,000 participants and more than 44.3M genotyped variants linked with detailed phenotyp

  • Bi-Ancestral Depression GWAS in the Million Veteran Program and Meta-Analysis in >1.2 Million Subjects Highlights New Therapeutic Directions - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34045744

    ABSTRACT: Major depressive disorder is the most common neuropsychiatric disorder, affecting 11% of veterans. We report results of a large meta-analysis of depression using data from the Million Veteran Program (MVP), 23andMe Inc., UK Biobank, and FinnGen; including individuals of European ancestry (n=1,154,267; 340,591 cases) and African ancestry (n=59,600; 25,843 cases). Transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) analyses revealed significant associations with expression of NEGR1 in the hypothalamus and DRD2 in the nucleus accumbens, among others. 178 genomic risk loci were fine-mapped, and we identified likely pathogenicity in these variants and overlapping gene expression for 17 genes from our TWAS, including TRAF3. Finally, we were able to show substantial replications of our findings
