  • Associations between electronic devices use and common mental traits: A gene-environment interaction model using the UK Biobank data. - Addiction biology (2022) · Ye J, Cheng S, Chu X, Wen Y, Cheng B, Liu L, Liang C, Kafle OP, Jia Y, Wu C, Wang S, Wang X, Ning Y, Zhang F · PubMed 34877740

    Electronic devices use has been reported to be associated with depression. However, limited effort has been provided to elucidate the associations between electronic devices use and mental traits in interaction with genetic factors. We first conducted an observational study consisting of 138 976-383 742 participants for TV watching, 29 636-38 599 participants for computer using and 118 61-330 985 participants for computer playing in the UK Biobank cohort. A linear regression model was used to evaluate the associations between common mental traits and electronic devices use. Subsequently, a genome-wide gene-environment interaction study (GWEIS) was performed by PLINK2.0 to estimate the interaction effects of genes and electronic devices use on the risks of the four mental traits

  • Shared Genetic and Experimental Links between Obesity-Related Traits and Asthma Subtypes in UK Biobank - The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology (2020) · Zhu Z, Guo Y, Shi H, Liu CL, Panganiban RA, Chung W, O'Connor LJ, Himes BE, Gazal S, Hasegawa K, Camargo CA, Qi L, Moffatt MF, Hu FB, Lu Q, Cookson WOC, Liang L · PubMed 31669095

    ABSTRACT: Background: Clinical and epidemiological studies have shown that obesity is associated with asthma and that these associations differ by asthma subtypes. Little is known about the shared genetic components between obesity and asthma. Objective: To identify shared genetic associations between obesity-related traits and asthma subtypes in adults. Methods: A cross-trait genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using 457,822 individuals of European ancestry from the UK Biobank. Experimental evidence to support the role of genes significantly associated with both obesity-related traits and asthma via GWAS was sought using results from obese vs. lean mouse RNA-seq and RT-PCR experiments. Results: We found a substantial positive genetic correlation between BMI and later-onset
