  • Genome-wide association analyses of autoimmune hypothyroidism reveal autoimmune and thyroid-specific contributions and an inverse relationship with cancer risk - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41748903

    ABSTRACT: The high prevalence (>5%) of autoimmune hypothyroidism (AIHT) provides a unique opportunity to dissect genetic contributions to systemic and organ-specific autoimmunity. Here we performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis of 81,718 AIHT cases in FinnGen and the UK Biobank, identifying 418 independent signals (P < 5 × 10−8). At 48 of these loci, a protein-coding variant is, or is highly correlated (r2 > 0.95) with, the lead variant, including Finnish-enriched coding variants in LAG3, ZAP70 and TG. We demonstrated that ZAP70:T155M reduces T cell activation and broadly compare large-scale scans of nonthyroid autoimmunity and thyroid-stimulating hormone levels with a Bayesian classifier to assign loci into distinct groupings, estimating that 38% are involved in g

  • Global multi-ancestry genome-wide analyses identify genes and biological pathways associated with thyroid cancer and benign thyroid diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41644669

    ABSTRACT: Thyroid diseases are common and highly heritable. We performed a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from 19 biobanks for five thyroid diseases: thyroid cancer (ThC), benign nodular goiter, Graves' disease, lymphocytic thyroiditis and primary hypothyroidism. We analyzed genetic association data from ~2.9 million genomes and identified 313 known and 570 new independent loci linked to thyroid diseases. We discovered genetic correlations between ThC, benign nodular goiter and autoimmune thyroid diseases (rg = 0.16-0.97). Telomere maintenance genes contributed to benign and malignant thyroid nodular disease risk, whereas cell cycle, DNA repair and damage response genes were associated with ThC. We propose a paradigm that explains genetic predisposition to benign
