  • Identifying genetic loci and phenomic associations of substance use traits: A multi-trait analysis of GWAS (MTAG) study - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37156939

    ABSTRACT: Background and Aims: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of opioid use disorder (OUD) and cannabis use disorder (CUD) have lagged behind those of alcohol use disorder (AUD) and smoking, where many more loci have been identified. We sought to identify novel loci for substance use traits (SUTs) in both African- (AFR) and European- (EUR) ancestry individuals to enhance our understanding of the traits' genetic architecture. Design: We used multi-trait analysis of GWAS (MTAG) to analyze four SUTs in EUR subjects (OUD, CUD, AUD and smoking initiation [SMKinitiation]), and three SUTs in AFR subjects (OUD, AUD and smoking trajectory [SMKtrajectory]). We conducted gene-set and protein-protein interaction analyses and calculated polygenic risk scores (PRS) in two independent samples
