Sex‐ and APOE‐specific genetic risk factors for late‐onset Alzheimer's disease: Evidence from gene–gene interaction of longevity‐related loci

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Genetic studies over the last few years, have changed the perception of late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), highlighting its polygenic nature with multiple susceptibility genetic loci. We applied a multidimensional reduction approach to detect gene–gene interactions affecting LOAD by testing variants harbored by genes previously investigated in ...

Including diverse and admixed populations in genetic epidemiology research

open access: yesGenetic Epidemiology, Volume 46, Issue 7, Page 347-371, October 2022., 2022
Abstract The inclusion of ancestrally diverse participants in genetic studies can lead to new discoveries and is important to ensure equitable health care benefit from research advances. Here, members of the Ethical, Legal, Social, Implications (ELSI) committee of the International Genetic Epidemiology Society (IGES) offer perspectives on methods and ...

Comparative Genetic Analysis of Psoriatic Arthritis and Psoriasis for the Discovery of Genetic Risk Factors and Risk Prediction Modeling

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 1535-1543, September 2022., 2022
Objectives Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) has a strong genetic component, and the identification of genetic risk factors could help identify the ~30% of psoriasis patients at high risk of developing PsA. Our objectives were to identify genetic risk factors and pathways that differentiate PsA from cutaneous‐only psoriasis (PsC) and to evaluate the ...

Using Mendelian randomization to explore the gateway hypothesis: possible causal effects of smoking initiation and alcohol consumption on substance use outcomes

open access: yesAddiction, Volume 117, Issue 3, Page 741-750, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Initial use of drugs such as tobacco and alcohol may lead to subsequent more problematic drug use—the ‘gateway’ hypothesis. However, observed associations may be due to a shared underlying risk factor, such as trait impulsivity. We used bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) to test the gateway hypothesis.

Large‐scale collaboration in ENIGMA‐EEG: A perspective on the meta‐analytic approach to link neurological and psychiatric liability genes to electrophysiological brain activity

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 11, Issue 8, August 2021., 2021
We present the perspective of the ENIGMA‐EEG workgroup on our goal to elucidate the genetics of brain activity measured by electroencephalography. We explain the issues that arise when performing an international multicohort study and the solutions to these problems.

Genome‐wide association studies of exacerbations in children using long‐acting beta2‐agonists

open access: yesPediatric Allergy and Immunology, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 1197-1207, August 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Some children with asthma experience exacerbations despite long‐acting beta2‐agonist (LABA) treatment. While this variability is partly caused by genetic variation, no genome‐wide study until now has investigated which genetic factors associated with risk of exacerbations despite LABA use in children with asthma.

APOE, ABCA7, and RASGEF1C are associated with earlier onset of amyloid deposition from more than 4000 harmonized positron emission tomography images. [PDF]

open access: yesAlzheimers Dement
Abstract INTRODUCTION New methods estimate amyloid positivity onset age (EAOA) from amyloid positron emission tomography (PET). We explore the genetics of EAOA to identify molecular factors underlying the earliest Alzheimer's disease (AD) changes. METHODS Harmonized amyloid PET data from 4216 participants were used in genome‐wide survival, tissue ...

A central role for GRB10 in regulation of islet function in man [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Variants in the growth factor receptor-bound protein 10 (GRB10) gene were in a GWAS meta-analysis associated with reduced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) if inherited from the father, but inexplicably ...

Double genomic control is not effective to correct for population stratification in Meta-analysis for genome-wide association studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2012
Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) has become a useful tool to identify genetic variants that are associated with complex human diseases.
