  • 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

  • Whole-genome sequence-based analysis of thyroid function - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 25743335

    ABSTRACT: Normal thyroid function is essential for health, but its genetic architecture remains poorly understood. Here, for the heritable thyroid traits thyrotropin (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4), we analyse whole-genome sequence data from the UK10K project (N=2,287). Using additional whole-genome sequence and deeply imputed data sets, we report meta-analysis results for common variants (MAF≥1%) associated with TSH and FT4 (N=16,335). For TSH, we identify a novel variant in SYN2 (MAF=23.5%, P=6.15 × 10−9) and a new independent variant in PDE8B (MAF=10.4%, P=5.94 × 10−14). For FT4, we report a low-frequency variant near B4GALT6/SLC25A52 (MAF=3.2%, P=1.27 × 10−9) tagging a rare TTR variant (MAF=0.4%, P=2.14 × 10−11). All common variants explain ≥20% of the variance in TSH an

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Discuss with your doctor

  • Graves disease risk assessment and screening strategy High

    Genetic variant rs12410532-T is strongly associated with Graves disease susceptibility; clinical evaluation optimizes monitoring and early detection.

    Discuss with healthcare provider about appropriate screening interval and symptom awareness

Screening

  • Thyroid function screening (TSH and free T4) High

    rs12410532-T allele increases risk of Graves disease, an autoimmune thyroid condition; periodic testing enables early detection.

    Baseline thyroid panel (TSH, free T4) and periodic monitoring based on clinical judgment
