• Genome-Wide Integration of Genetic and Genomic Studies of Atopic Dermatitis: Insights into Genetic Architecture and Pathogenesis. - The Journal of investigative dermatology (2022) · Chen Y, Chen W · PubMed 35577104

  Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common heterogeneous, chronic, itching, and inflammatory skin disease. Genetic studies have identified multiple AD susceptibility genes. However, the genetic architecture of AD has not been elucidated. In this study, we conducted a large-scale meta-analysis of AD (35,647 cases and 1,013,885 controls) to characterize the genetic basis of AD. The heritability of AD in different datasets varied from 0.6 to 7.1%. We identified 31 previously unreported genes by integrating multiomics data. Among the 31 genes, MCL1 was identified as a potential treatment target for AD by mediating gene‒drug interactions. Tissue enrichment analyses and phenome-wide association study provided strong support for the role of the hemic and immune systems in AD. Across 1,207 complex trait

• Exploiting meta-analysis of genome-wide interaction with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D to identify novel genetic loci associated with pulmonary function - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 38484975

  ABSTRACT: Background Higher 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations in serum has a positive association with pulmonary function. Investigating genome-wide interactions with 25(OH)D may reveal new biological insights into pulmonary function. Objectives We aimed to identify novel genetic variants associated with pulmonary function by accounting for 25(OH)D interactions. Methods We included 211,264 participants from the observational United Kingdom Biobank study with pulmonary function tests (PFTs), genome-wide genotypes, and 25(OH)D concentrations from 4 ancestral backgrounds-European, African, East Asian, and South Asian. Among PFTs, we focused on forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) because both were previously associated with 25(OH)D.

• Shared Genetic and Experimental Links between Obesity-Related Traits and Asthma Subtypes in UK Biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31669095

  ABSTRACT: Background: Clinical and epidemiological studies have shown that obesity is associated with asthma and that these associations differ by asthma subtypes. Little is known about the shared genetic components between obesity and asthma. Objective: To identify shared genetic associations between obesity-related traits and asthma subtypes in adults. Methods: A cross-trait genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using 457,822 individuals of European ancestry from the UK Biobank. Experimental evidence to support the role of genes significantly associated with both obesity-related traits and asthma via GWAS was sought using results from obese vs. lean mouse RNA-seq and RT-PCR experiments. Results: We found a substantial positive genetic correlation between BMI and later-onset

• Genome-wide Comparative Analysis of Atopic Dermatitis and Psoriasis Gives Insight into Opposing Genetic Mechanisms - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 25574825

  ABSTRACT: Atopic dermatitis and psoriasis are the two most common immune-mediated inflammatory disorders affecting the skin. Genome-wide studies demonstrate a high degree of genetic overlap, but these diseases have mutually exclusive clinical phenotypes and opposing immune mechanisms. Despite their prevalence, atopic dermatitis and psoriasis very rarely co-occur within one individual. By utilizing genome-wide association study and ImmunoChip data from >19,000 individuals and methodologies developed from meta-analysis, we have identified opposing risk alleles at shared loci as well as independent disease-specific loci within the epidermal differentiation complex (chromosome 1q21.3), the Th2 locus control region (chromosome 5q31.1), and the major histocompatibility complex (chromosome 6p21

• Genome-wide association study identifies 143 loci associated with 25 hydroxyvitamin D concentration - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 32242144

  ABSTRACT: Vitamin D deficiency is a candidate risk factor for a range of adverse health outcomes. In a genome-wide association study of 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentration in 417,580 Europeans we identify 143 independent loci in 112 1-Mb regions, providing insights into the physiology of vitamin D and implicating genes involved in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism, dermal tissue properties, and the sulphonation and glucuronidation of 25OHD. Mendelian randomization models find no robust evidence that 25OHD concentration has causal effects on candidate phenotypes (e.g. BMI, psychiatric disorders), but many phenotypes have (direct or indirect) causal effects on 25OHD concentration, clarifying the epidemiological relationship between 25OHD status and the health outcomes examined in this s
