  • Genetic Correlation, Shared Loci, and Causal Association Between Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin and Bone Mineral Density: Insights From a Large-Scale Genomewide Cross-Trait Analysis. - Journal of bone and mineral research : the official journal of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (2023) · Qu Y, Xiao C, Wu X, Zhu J, Qin C, He L, Cui H, Zhang L, Zhang W, Yang C, Yao Y, Li J, Liu Z, Zhang B, Wang W, Jiang X · PubMed 37615194

    Although the impact of sex hormones on bone metabolism is well-documented, effect of their primary modulator, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), remains inconclusive. This study aims to elucidate the genetic overlap between SHBG and heel estimated bone mineral density (eBMD), a widely-accepted tool for osteoporosis management and fracture risk assessment. Using summary statistics from large-scale genomewide association studies conducted for SHBG (N = 370,125), SHBG adjusted for body mass index (SHBGa, N = 368,929), and eBMD (N = 426,824), a comprehensive genomewide cross-trait approach was performed to quantify global and local genetic correlations, identify pleiotropic loci, and infer causal associations. A significant overall inverse genetic correlation was found for SHBG a

  • A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for adiponectin levels in East Asians identifies a novel locus near WDR11-FGFR2. - Human molecular genetics (2014) · Wu Y, Gao H, Li H, Tabara Y, Nakatochi M, Chiu YF, Park EJ, Wen W, Adair LS, Borja JB, Cai Q, Chang YC, Chen P, Croteau-Chonka DC, Fogarty MP, Gan W, He CT, Hsiung CA, Hwu CM, Ichihara S, Igase M, Jo J, Kato N, Kawamoto R, Kuzawa CW, Lee JJ, Liu J, Lu L, McDade TW, Osawa H, Sheu WH, Teo Y, Vadlamudi S, Van Dam RM, Wang Y, Xiang YB, Yamamoto K, Ye X, Young TL, Zheng W, Zhu J, Shu XO, Shin C, Jee SH, Chuang LM, Miki T, Yokota M, Lin X, Mohlke KL, Tai ES · PubMed 24105470

    Blood levels of adiponectin, an adipocyte-secreted protein correlated with metabolic and cardiovascular risks, are highly heritable. Genome-wide association (GWA) studies for adiponectin levels have identified 14 loci harboring variants associated with blood levels of adiponectin. To identify novel adiponectin-associated loci, particularly those of importance in East Asians, we conducted a meta-analysis of GWA studies for adiponectin in 7827 individuals, followed by two stages of replications in 4298 and 5954 additional individuals. We identified a novel adiponectin-associated locus on chromosome 10 near WDR11-FGFR2 (P = 3.0 × 10(-14)) and provided suggestive evidence for a locus on chromosome 12 near OR8S1-LALBA (P = 1.2 × 10(-7)). Of the adiponectin-associated loci previously described

  • Multi-ancestry sleep-by-SNP interaction analysis in 126,926 individuals reveals lipid loci stratified by sleep duration - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31719535

    ABSTRACT: Both short and long sleep are associated with an adverse lipid profile, likely through different biological pathways. To elucidate the biology of sleep-associated adverse lipid profile, we conduct multi-ancestry genome-wide sleep-SNP interaction analyses on three lipid traits (HDL-c, LDL-c and triglycerides). In the total study sample (discovery + replication) of 126,926 individuals from 5 different ancestry groups, when considering either long or short total sleep time interactions in joint analyses, we identify 49 previously unreported lipid loci, and 10 additional previously unreported lipid loci in a restricted sample of European-ancestry cohorts. In addition, we identify new gene-sleep interactions for known lipid loci such as LPL and PCSK9. The previously unreported lip

  • Genome-wide characterization of circulating metabolic biomarkers - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38448586

    ABSTRACT: Genome-wide association analyses using high-throughput metabolomics platforms have led to novel insights into the biology of human metabolism. This detailed knowledge of the genetic determinants of systemic metabolism has been pivotal for uncovering how genetic pathways influence biological mechanisms and complex diseases. Here we present a genome-wide association study for 233 circulating metabolic traits quantified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in up to 136,016 participants from 33 cohorts. We identify more than 400 independent loci and assign probable causal genes at two-thirds of these using manual curation of plausible biological candidates. We highlight the importance of sample and participant characteristics that can have significant effects on genetic associa
