  • Discovery of novel ancestry specific genes for androgens and hypogonadism in Million Veteran Program Men - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40316537

    ABSTRACT: Given the various roles of testosterone in men's health, we conducted a multi-ancestral genetic analysis of total testosterone, free testosterone, SHBG, and hypogonadism in men within the Million Veteran Program (MVP). Here we identified 157 significant testosterone genetic variants, of which 8 have significant ancestry-specific associations. These variants implicate several genes, including SERPINF2, PRPF8, BAIAP2L1, SHBG, PRMT6, and PPIF, related to liver function. Genetic regulators of testosterone have cell type-specific effects in the testes, liver, and adrenal gland and are associated with disease risk. We conducted a meta-analysis amongst ancestry groups to identify 188 variants significantly associated with testosterone, of which 22 are novel associations. We constructe

  • Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36357675

    ABSTRACT: Garrod's concept of 'chemical individuality' has contributed to comprehension of the molecular origins of human diseases. Untargeted high-throughput metabolomic technologies provide an in-depth snapshot of human metabolism at scale. We studied the genetic architecture of the human plasma metabolome using 913 metabolites assayed in 19,994 individuals and identified 2,599 variant-metabolite associations (P < 1.25 × 10−11) within 330 genomic regions, with rare variants (minor allele frequency ≤ 1%) explaining 9.4% of associations. Jointly modeling metabolites in each region, we identified 423 regional, co-regulated, variant-metabolite clusters called genetically influenced metabotypes. We assigned causal genes for 62.4% of these genetically influenced meta

  • Genetic studies of paired metabolomes reveal enzymatic and transport processes at the interface of plasma and urine - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37277652

    ABSTRACT: The kidneys operate at the interface of plasma and urine by clearing molecular waste products while retaining valuable solutes. Genetic studies of paired plasma and urine metabolomes may identify underlying processes. We conducted genome-wide studies of 1,916 plasma and urine metabolites and detected 1,299 significant associations. Associations with 40% of implicated metabolites would have been missed by studying plasma alone. We detected urine-specific findings that provide information about metabolite reabsorption in the kidney, such as aquaporin (AQP)-7-mediated glycerol transport, and different metabolomic footprints of kidney-expressed proteins in plasma and urine that are consistent with their localization and function, including the transporters NaDC3 (SLC13A3) and ASBT (S
