  • Characterising metabolomic signatures of lipid-modifying therapies through drug target mendelian randomisation - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35213538

    ABSTRACT: Large-scale molecular profiling and genotyping provide a unique opportunity to systematically compare the genetically predicted effects of therapeutic targets on the human metabolome. We firstly constructed genetic risk scores for 8 drug targets on the basis that they primarily modify low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (HMGCR, PCKS9, and NPC1L1), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (CETP), or triglycerides (APOC3, ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4, and LPL). Conducting mendelian randomisation (MR) provided strong evidence of an effect of drug-based genetic scores on coronary artery disease (CAD) risk with the exception of ANGPTL3. We then systematically estimated the effects of each score on 249 metabolic traits derived using blood samples from an unprecedented sample size of up to

  • Decreased Circulating Very Small Low-Density Lipoprotein is Likely Causal for Age-Related Macular Degeneration - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39091897

    ABSTRACT: Objective Abnormal changes in metabolite levels in serum or plasma have been highlighted in several studies in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of irreversible vision loss. Specific changes in lipid profiles are associated with an increased risk of AMD. Metabolites could thus be used to investigate AMD disease mechanisms or incorporated into AMD risk prediction models. However, whether particular metabolites causally affect the disease has yet to be established. Design A 3-tiered analysis of blood metabolites in the United Kingdom (UK) Biobank cohort to identify metabolites that differ in AMD patients with evidence for a putatively causal role in AMD. Participants A total of 72 376 donors from the UK Biobank cohort including participants with AMD (N = 

  • A large electronic health record-based genome-wide study of serum lipids - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 29507422

    ABSTRACT: A genome-wide association study of 94,674 multi-ethnic Kaiser Permanente members utilizing 478,866 longitudinal untreated serum lipid electronic-health-record-derived measurements (EHRs) empowered multiple novel findings: 121 new SNP associations (46 primary, 15 conditional, 60 in meta-analysis with Global Lipids Genetic Consortium); increase of 33-42% in variance explained with multiple measurements; sex differences in genetic impact (greater in females for LDL, HDL, TC, the opposite for TG); differences in variance explained amongst non-Hispanic whites, Latinos, African Americans, and East Asians; genetic dominance and epistasis, with strong evidence for both at ABOxFUT2 for LDL; and eQTL tissue-enrichment implicating the liver, adipose, and pancreas.
