  • Genetic analysis of quantitative traits in the Japanese population links cell types to complex human diseases. - Nature genetics (2019) · Kanai M, Akiyama M, Takahashi A, Matoba N, Momozawa Y, Ikeda M, Iwata N, Ikegawa S, Hirata M, Matsuda K, Kubo M, Okada Y, Kamatani Y · PubMed 29403010

    Clinical measurements can be viewed as useful intermediate phenotypes to promote understanding of complex human diseases. To acquire comprehensive insights into the underlying genetics, here we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 58 quantitative traits in 162,255 Japanese individuals. Overall, we identified 1,407 trait-associated loci (P < 5.0 × 10 ), 679 of which were novel. By incorporating 32 additional GWAS results for complex diseases and traits in Japanese individuals, we further highlighted pleiotropy, genetic correlations, and cell-type specificity across quantitative traits and diseases, which substantially expands the current understanding of the associated genetics and biology. This study identified both shared polygenic effects and cell-type specificity

  • Genome‑wide association study and polygenic risk scores predict psoriasis and its shared phenotypes in Taiwan - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38757301

    ABSTRACT: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatological disease, and there is a lack of understanding of the genetic factors involved in psoriasis in Taiwan. To establish associations between genetic variations and psoriasis, a genome-wide association study was performed in a cohort of 2,248 individuals with psoriasis and 67,440 individuals without psoriasis. Using the ingenuity pathway analysis software, biological networks were constructed. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) diplotypes and haplotypes were analyzed using Attribute Bagging (HIBAG)-R software and chi-square analysis. The present study aimed to assess the potential risks associated with psoriasis using a polygenic risk score (PRS) analysis. The genetic association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in psoriasis a
