  • Global multi-ancestry genome-wide analyses identify genes and biological pathways associated with thyroid cancer and benign thyroid diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41644669

    ABSTRACT: Thyroid diseases are common and highly heritable. We performed a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from 19 biobanks for five thyroid diseases: thyroid cancer (ThC), benign nodular goiter, Graves' disease, lymphocytic thyroiditis and primary hypothyroidism. We analyzed genetic association data from ~2.9 million genomes and identified 313 known and 570 new independent loci linked to thyroid diseases. We discovered genetic correlations between ThC, benign nodular goiter and autoimmune thyroid diseases (rg = 0.16-0.97). Telomere maintenance genes contributed to benign and malignant thyroid nodular disease risk, whereas cell cycle, DNA repair and damage response genes were associated with ThC. We propose a paradigm that explains genetic predisposition to benign

  • 131 genetic loci highlight immunological pathways and tissues in nasal polyposis and asthma - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41213931

    ABSTRACT: The coexistence of asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) is associated with allergic phenotypes, disease severity and failure of first-line treatment for both asthma and CRSwNP. Recent studies have highlighted shared genetic components for these diseases. To better understand this shared component, we perform genome-wide meta-analyses of asthma (n = 71,481), CRSwNP (n = 9626) and chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyposis (CRSsNP, n = 15,448) in FinnGen and UKB (685,602 controls). We detect 131 genomic associations, including 17 novel loci for asthma, 33 novel loci for CRSwNP, and one for CRSsNP. A shared impact on asthma and CRSwNP is observed at 71 loci. A cross-trait meta-analysis using all disorders further implicates 17 loci associated wit
