  • Japanese GWAS identifies variants for bust-size, dysmenorrhea, and menstrual fever that are eQTLs for relevant protein-coding or long non-coding RNAs - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 29855537

    ABSTRACT: Traits related to primary and secondary sexual characteristics greatly impact females during puberty and day-to-day adult life. Therefore, we performed a GWAS analysis of 11,348 Japanese female volunteers and 22 gynecology-related phenotypic variables, and identified significant associations for bust-size, menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea) severity, and menstrual fever. Bust-size analysis identified significant association signals in CCDC170-ESR1 (rs6557160; P = 1.7 × 10−16) and KCNU1-ZNF703 (rs146992477; P = 6.2 × 10−9) and found that one-third of known European-ancestry associations were also present in Japanese. eQTL data points to CCDC170 and ZNF703 as those signals' functional targets. For menstrual fever, we identified a novel association in OPRM1 (rs171

  • The genetic basis of endometriosis and comorbidity with other pain and inflammatory conditions - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36914876

    ABSTRACT: Endometriosis is a common condition associated with debilitating pelvic pain and infertility. A genome-wide association study meta-analysis, including 60,674 cases and 701,926 controls of European and East Asian descent, identified 42 genome-wide significant loci comprising 49 distinct association signals. Effect sizes were largest for stage III/IV disease, driven by ovarian endometriosis. Identified signals explained up to 5.01% of disease variance and regulated expression or methylation of genes in endometrium and blood, many of which were associated with pain perception/maintenance (SRP14/BMF, GDAP1, MLLT10, BSN, NGF). We observed significant genetic correlations between endometriosis and 11 pain-conditions including migraine, back, and multisite chronic pain (MCP), as well as

  • The phenotypic and genetic association between endometriosis and immunological diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40262193

    ABSTRACT: Abstract STUDY QUESTION Is there an increased risk of immunological diseases among endometriosis patients, and does a shared genetic basis contribute to this risk? SUMMARY ANSWER Endometriosis patients show a significantly increased risk of autoimmune, autoinflammatory, and mixed-pattern diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, coeliac disease, osteoarthritis, and psoriasis, with genetic correlations between endometriosis and osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis, and a potential causal link to rheumatoid arthritis. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY The epidemiological evidence for an increased risk of immunological diseases among women with endometriosis is limited in scope and has varied in robustness due to the opportunity for biases.
