  • GWAS of 165,084 Japanese individuals identified nine loci associated with dietary habits. - Nature human behaviour (2020) · Matoba N, Akiyama M, Ishigaki K, Kanai M, Takahashi A, Momozawa Y, Ikegawa S, Ikeda M, Iwata N, Hirata M, Matsuda K, Murakami Y, Kubo M, Kamatani Y, Okada Y · PubMed 31959922

    Dietary habits are important factors in our lifestyle, and confer both susceptibility to and protection from a variety of human diseases. We performed genome-wide association studies for 13 dietary habits including consumption of alcohol (ever versus never drinkers and drinks per week), beverages (coffee, green tea and milk) and foods (yoghurt, cheese, natto, tofu, fish, small whole fish, vegetables and meat) in Japanese individuals (n = 58,610-165,084) collected by BioBank Japan, the nationwide hospital-based genome cohort. Significant associations were found in nine genetic loci (MCL1-ENSA, GCKR, AGR3-AHR, ADH1B, ALDH1B1, ALDH1A1, ALDH2, CYP1A2-CSK and ADORA2A-AS1) for 13 dietary traits (P < 3.8 × 10 ). Of these, ten associations between five loci and eight traits were n

  • Genetic predictors of participation in optional components of UK Biobank - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33563987

    ABSTRACT: Large studies such as UK Biobank are increasingly used for GWAS and Mendelian randomization (MR) studies. However, selection into and dropout from studies may bias genetic and phenotypic associations. We examine genetic factors affecting participation in four optional components in up to 451,306 UK Biobank participants. We used GWAS to identify genetic variants associated with participation, MR to estimate effects of phenotypes on participation, and genetic correlations to compare participation bias across different studies. 32 variants were associated with participation in one of the optional components (P < 6 × 10−9), including loci with links to intelligence and Alzheimer's disease. Genetic correlations demonstrated that participation bias was common across studie
