• A cross-population atlas of genetic associations for 220 human phenotypes. - Nature genetics (2021) · Sakaue S, Kanai M, Tanigawa Y, Karjalainen J, Kurki M, Koshiba S, Narita A, Konuma T, Yamamoto K, Akiyama M, Ishigaki K, Suzuki A, Suzuki K, Obara W, Yamaji K, Takahashi K, Asai S, Takahashi Y, Suzuki T, Shinozaki N, Yamaguchi H, Minami S, Murayama S, Yoshimori K, Nagayama S, Obata D, Higashiyama M, Masumoto A, Koretsune Y, Ito K, Terao C, Yamauchi T, Komuro I, Kadowaki T, Tamiya G, Yamamoto M, Nakamura Y, Kubo M, Murakami Y, Yamamoto K, Kamatani Y, Palotie A, Rivas MA, Daly MJ, Matsuda K, Okada Y · PubMed 34594039

  Current genome-wide association studies do not yet capture sufficient diversity in populations and scope of phenotypes. To expand an atlas of genetic associations in non-European populations, we conducted 220 deep-phenotype genome-wide association studies (diseases, biomarkers and medication usage) in BioBank Japan (n = 179,000), by incorporating past medical history and text-mining of electronic medical records. Meta-analyses with the UK Biobank and FinnGen (n = 628,000) identified ~5,000 new loci, which improved the resolution of the genomic map of human traits. This atlas elucidated the landscape of pleiotropy as represented by the major histocompatibility complex locus, where we conducted HLA fine-mapping. Finally, we performed statistical decomposition of matrices of phenome-wid

• Association of Myopia and Intraocular Pressure With Retinal Detachment in European Descent Participants of the UK Biobank Cohort: A Mendelian Randomization Study. - JAMA ophthalmology (2021) · Han X, Ong JS, An J, Craig JE, Gharahkhani P, Hewitt AW, MacGregor S · PubMed 32352494

  Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is a potentially sight-threatening condition. The role of myopia or intraocular pressure (IOP) in retinal detachment remains unclear. To determine if myopia or IOP is associated with retinal detachment risk using genetic data. Observational analyses and 2-sample mendelian randomization were used to evaluate the associations between myopia, IOP, and retinal detachment risk in European descent participants from the UK Biobank (UKBB) cohort (n = 405 692). For retinal detachment, a genome-wide association study on 4257 cases and 39 181 controls in the UKBB was conducted. Genetic variants associated with mean spherical equivalent (MSE) refractive error (n = 95 827) and IOP (n = 101 939) were derived using independent participants from the re

• Genome-wide association study of intraocular pressure uncovers new pathways to glaucoma. - Nature genetics (2019) · MacGregor S, Ong JS, An J, Han X, Zhou T, Siggs OM, Law MH, Souzeau E, Sharma S, Lynn DJ, Beesley J, Sheldrick B, Mills RA, Landers J, Ruddle JB, Graham SL, Healey PR, White AJR, Casson RJ, Best S, Grigg JR, Goldberg I, Powell JE, Whiteman DC, Radford-Smith GL, Martin NG, Montgomery GW, Burdon KP, Mackey DA, Gharahkhani P, Craig JE, Hewitt AW · PubMed 30054594

  Intraocular pressure (IOP) is currently the sole modifiable risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide . Both IOP and POAG are highly heritable . We report a combined analysis of participants from the UK Biobank (n = 103,914) and previously published data from the International Glaucoma Genetic Consortium (n = 29,578) that identified 101 statistically independent genome-wide-significant SNPs for IOP, 85 of which have not been previously reported . We examined these SNPs in 11,018 glaucoma cases and 126,069 controls, and 53 SNPs showed evidence of association. Gene-based tests implicated an additional 22 independent genes associated with IOP. We derived an allele score based on the IOP loci and loci influencing optic nerve he

• Genetic Architecture of Trans-Laminar Cribrosa Pressure Difference and Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 42017308

  ABSTRACT: Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the genetic architecture of translaminar cribrosa pressure difference (TLCPD) provides genetic insights based on dual-pressure theory beyond intraocular pressure (IOP) and whether a TLCPD-based polygenic risk score (PRS) predicts primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) risk and its pleiotropic effects. Methods The genome-wide association study (GWAS) of TLCPD was conducted in 82,147 individuals of European ancestry from the UK Biobank (UKBB). Functional enrichment analysis and colocalization analysis were performed to identify associated genes, tissues, and pathways. PRS was calculated in an independent set of 268,734 unrelated European-ancestry individuals not included in the TLCPD GWAS. A survival analysis was utilized to
