• Multi-ancestry genome-wide association analyses identify novel genetic mechanisms in rheumatoid arthritis - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36333501

  ABSTRACT: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a highly heritable complex disease with unknown etiology. Multi-ancestry genetic research of RA promises to improve power to detect genetic signals, fine-mapping resolution and performances of polygenic risk scores (PRS). Here, we present a large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) of RA, which includes 276,020 samples from five ancestral groups. We conducted a multi-ancestry meta-analysis and identified 124 loci (P < 5 × 10−8), of which 34 are novel. Candidate genes at the novel loci suggest essential roles of the immune system (for example, TNIP2 and TNFRSF11A) and joint tissues (for example, WISP1) in RA etiology. Multi-ancestry fine-mapping identified putatively causal variants with biological insights (for example, LEF1). Moreover, PRS

• The phenotypic and genetic association between endometriosis and immunological diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 40262193

  ABSTRACT: Abstract STUDY QUESTION Is there an increased risk of immunological diseases among endometriosis patients, and does a shared genetic basis contribute to this risk? SUMMARY ANSWER Endometriosis patients show a significantly increased risk of autoimmune, autoinflammatory, and mixed-pattern diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, coeliac disease, osteoarthritis, and psoriasis, with genetic correlations between endometriosis and osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis, and a potential causal link to rheumatoid arthritis. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY The epidemiological evidence for an increased risk of immunological diseases among women with endometriosis is limited in scope and has varied in robustness due to the opportunity for biases.
