  • Identification of 969 protein quantitative trait loci in an African American population with kidney disease attributed to hypertension. - Kidney international (2022) · Surapaneni A, Schlosser P, Zhou L, Liu C, Chatterjee N, Arking DE, Dutta D, Coresh J, Rhee EP, Grams ME · PubMed 35870639

    Investigations into the causal underpinnings of disease processes can be aided by the incorporation of genetic information. Genetic studies require populations varied in both ancestry and prevalent disease in order to optimize discovery and ensure generalizability of findings to the global population. Here, we report the genetic determinants of the serum proteome in 466 African Americans with chronic kidney disease attributed to hypertension from the richly phenotyped African American Study of Kidney Disease and Hypertension (AASK) study. Using the largest aptamer-based protein profiling platform to date (6,790 proteins or protein complexes), we identified 969 genetic associations with 900 unique proteins; including 52 novel cis (local) associations and 379 novel trans (distant) associatio

  • Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of the Plasma Proteome in Black Adults Provides Novel Insights into Cardiovascular Disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34814699

    ABSTRACT: Background: Plasma proteins are critical mediators of cardiovascular processes and are the targets of many drugs. Previous efforts to characterize the genetic architecture of the plasma proteome have been limited by a focus on individuals of European descent and leveraged genotyping arrays and imputation. Here we describe whole genome sequence analysis of the plasma proteome in individuals with greater African ancestry, increasing our power to identify novel genetic determinants. Methods: Proteomic profiling of 1,301 proteins was performed in 1852 Black adults from the Jackson Heart Study using aptamer-based proteomics (SomaScan®). Whole genome sequencing association analysis was ascertained for all variants with minor allele count ≥ 5. Results were validated using an alternat
