Using Patterns of Genetic Association to Elucidate Shared Genetic Etiologies Across Psychiatric Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Twin studies indicate that latent genetic factors overlap across comorbid psychiatric disorders. In this study, we used a novel approach to elucidate shared genetic factors across psychiatric outcomes by clustering single nucleotide polymorphisms based ...

An Expanded Genome-Wide Association Study of Type 2 Diabetes in Europeans

open access: yesDiabetes, 2017
To characterize type 2 diabetes (T2D)-associated variation across the allele frequency spectrum, we conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association data from 26,676 T2D case and 132,532 control subjects of European ancestry after imputation using ...

Genome-wide Association Studies Meet Chemoprevention [PDF]

open access: yesJNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 2013
The T variant at rs6983267 on 8q24 is a weakly protective allele for colorectal cancer discovered in the conduct of GWASs (2–4). This locus resides in an apparent enhancer domain for MYC (5), and deletion of the region in mice has been associated with resistance to APCmin-induced intestinal tumorigenesis (6) by decreasing TCF7L2 interaction with CTNNB1

Integration of circadian and hypoxia signaling via non‐canonical heterodimerization

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CLOCK, BMAL1, and HIFs are basic helix‐loop‐helix and Per‐Arnt‐Sim domain (bHLH‐PAS) proteins, which function as transcription factors. bHLH‐PAS proteins are designated in two classes. Many class I proteins are regulated by environmental signals via their PAS domains, but such signals have not been identified for all.

Association between human blood metabolome and the risk of delirium: a Mendelian Randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundDelirium significantly contributes to both mortality and morbidity among hospitalized older adults. Furthermore, delirium leads to escalated healthcare expenditures, extended hospital stays, and enduring cognitive deterioration, all of which ...

A large-scale genome-wide association study of Asian populations uncovers genetic factors influencing eight quantitative traits

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2009
To identify genetic factors influencing quantitative traits of biomedical importance, we conducted a genome-wide association study in 8,842 samples from population-based cohorts recruited in Korea.

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

Identification of Risk Loci for Parkinson Disease in Asians and Comparison of Risk Between Asians and Europeans: A Genome-Wide Association Study.

open access: yesJAMA Neurology, 2020
Importance Large-scale genome-wide association studies in the European population have identified 90 risk variants associated with Parkinson disease (PD); however, there are limited studies in the largest population worldwide (ie, Asian). Objectives To

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Enhancer RNA Transcriptome‐Wide Association Study Reveals a Distinctive Class of Pan‐Cancer Susceptibility eRNAs

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Many cancer risk variants are located within enhancer regions and lack sufficient molecular interpretation. Here, we constructed the first comprehensive atlas of enhancer RNA (eRNA)‐mediated genetic effects from 28 033 RNA sequencing samples across 11 ...
