  • Mapping the proteo-genomic convergence of human diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34648354

    ABSTRACT: Characterization of the genetic regulation of proteins is essential for understanding disease etiology and developing therapies. We identified 10,674 genetic associations for 3,892 plasma proteins to create a cis-anchored gene-protein-disease map of 1,859 connections that highlights strong cross-disease biological convergence. This proteo-genomic map provides a framework to 1) connect etiologically related diseases, 2) provide biological context for new or emerging disorders, and 3) integrate different biological domains to establish mechanisms for known gene-disease links. Our results identify proteo-genomic connections within and between diseases and establish the value of cis-protein variants for annotation of likely causal disease genes at GWAS loci, addressing a major barrie

  • Genome-wide association of phenotypes based on clustering patterns of hand osteoarthritis identify WNT9A as novel osteoarthritis gene - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33055079

    ABSTRACT: Background Despite recent advances in the understanding of the genetic architecture of osteoarthritis (OA), only two genetic loci have been identified for OA of the hand, in part explained by the complexity of the different hand joints and heterogeneity of OA pathology. Methods We used data from the Rotterdam Study (RSI, RSII and RSIII) to create three hand OA phenotypes based on clustering patterns of radiographic OA severity to increase power in our modest discovery genome-wide association studies in the RS (n=8700), and sought replication in an independent cohort, the Framingham Heart Study (n=1203). We used multiple approaches that leverage different levels of information and functional data to further investigate the underlying biological mechanisms and candidate genes for r

  • Genome-wide Association Studies of over 30,000 Samples with Bone Mineral Density at Multiple Skeletal Sites and Its Clinical Relevance - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41206123

    ABSTRACT: Abstract The ultimate goal of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) is to translate its discoveries into clinical practice. To explore the clinical use of GWAS findings in the bone field, we conducted a GWAS of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived bone mineral density (BMD) traits at 11 skeletal sites, within over 30,000 European individuals from the UK Biobank. A total of 91 unique and independent loci were identified for 11 DXA-derived BMD traits and fractures, including 5 novel loci (harboring the genes ABCA1, CHSY1, CYP24A1, SWAP70, and PAX1) for 6 BMD traits. These loci exhibited evidence of association in both males and females, which could serve as independent replication. We demonstrated that each polygenic risk score (PRS) was independently associated with fra
