  • Genome-wide analysis of blood lipid metabolites in over 5000 South Asians reveals biological insights at cardiometabolic disease loci - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34503513

    ABSTRACT: Background Genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors can lead to perturbations in circulating lipid levels and increase the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. However, how changes in individual lipid species contribute to disease risk is often unclear. Moreover, little is known about the role of lipids on cardiovascular disease in Pakistan, a population historically underrepresented in cardiovascular studies. Methods We characterised the genetic architecture of the human blood lipidome in 5662 hospital controls from the Pakistan Risk of Myocardial Infarction Study (PROMIS) and 13,814 healthy British blood donors from the INTERVAL study. We applied a candidate causal gene prioritisation tool to link the genetic variants associated with each lipid to the most likely

  • Cross-trait genomic modeling reveals the polygenic architecture and systemic impact of MASLD - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41686896

    ABSTRACT: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a globally prevalent disease, yet its genetic architecture remains incompletely characterized. We integrated genome-wide association study data from multiple cohorts totaling nearly 3 million individuals of European ancestry and applied cross-trait genomic modeling of hepatic fat and seven cardiometabolic traits to construct an MASLD-specific polygenic architecture. We identified 128 risk variants across 100 loci and prioritized 55 effector genes, including established (e.g., PNPLA3 and TM6SF2) and previously unreported candidates (e.g., NRXN3 and FRMD5). A phenome-wide scan of the MASLD polygenic risk score revealed broad associations spanning hepatic, cardiometabolic, renal, endocrine, and neuropsychiatric sy
