  • A longitudinal genome-wide association study of bone mineral density mean and variability in the UK Biobank. - Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA (2023) · He D, Liu H, Wei W, Zhao Y, Cai Q, Shi S, Chu X, Qin X, Zhang N, Xu P, Zhang F · PubMed 37500982

    Bone mineral density (BMD) is an essential predictor of osteoporosis and fracture. We conducted a genome-wide trajectory analysis of BMD and analyzed the BMD change. This study aimed to identify the genetic architecture and potential biomarkers of BMD. Our analysis included 141,261 white participants from the UK Biobank with heel BMD phenotype data. We used a genome-wide trajectory analysis tool, TrajGWAS, to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of BMD. Then, we validated our findings in previously reported BMD genetic associations and performed replication analysis in the Asian participants. Finally, gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of the identified candidate genes was conducted using the FUMA platform. A total of 52 genes associated with BMD trajectory mean were identified,

  • Biliary atresia is associated with polygenic susceptibility in ciliogenesis and planar polarity effector genes - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37572794

    ABSTRACT: Background & Aims: Biliary atresia (BA) is poorly understood and leads to liver transplantation (LT), with the requirement for and associated risks of lifelong immunosuppression, in most children. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to determine the genetic basis of BA. Methods: We performed a GWAS in 811 European BA cases treated with LT in US, Canadian and UK centers, and 4,654 genetically matched controls. Whole-genome sequencing of 100 cases evaluated synthetic association with rare variants. Functional studies included whole liver transcriptome analysis of 64 BA cases and perturbations in experimental models. Results: A GWAS of common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), i.e. allele frequencies >1%, identified intronic SNPs rs6446628 in AFAP1 with genome-w
