Assessment of Genetic Correlations Between Tobacco or Alcohol Use and Neurodegenerative Diseases Using East Asian Genetic Ancestry Genome‐Wide Association Study Results

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are the most prevalent late‐onset neurodegenerative diseases worldwide. Both are influenced in part by genetic factors and are currently incurable. Tobacco and alcohol, the two most common substances used among the general adult population, are potential AD/PD risk factors and are also ...

Assessment of genetic risk for improved clinical-neuropathological correlations

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
In the clinical diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies, distinction from Alzheimer’s disease is suboptimal and complicated by shared genetic risk factors and frequent co-pathology.

Identifying Systemic Lupus Erythematosus From Serum Proteomic Profiles Using Machine Learning and Genetic Risk Stratification

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Proteome‐wide risk models for lupus remain underexplored. We developed classification models to identify lupus from serum proteomic profiles. Methods Patients with lupus and individuals with other autoimmune diseases in the UK Biobank were included.

Risk of venous thromboembolism after SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination—Evidence from genome‐wide association study and population‐based observational study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim We aimed to investigate whether genetic variation is associated with venous thromboembolism after immunization with SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccines. Methods We conducted a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) on cases of venous thromboembolism within 42 days after SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination, recruited from reports of adverse drug reactions sent to the Swedish ...

Penalized regression and model selection methods for polygenic scores on summary statistics.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2020
Polygenic scores quantify the genetic risk associated with a given phenotype and are widely used to predict the risk of complex diseases. There has been recent interest in developing methods to construct polygenic risk scores using summary statistic data.

Clinical applications of polygenic breast cancer risk: a critical review and perspectives of an emerging field

Breast Cancer Research, 2020
Polygenic factors are estimated to account for an additional 18% of the familial relative risk of breast cancer, with those at the highest level of polygenic risk distribution having a least a twofold increased risk of the disease.

Pharmacogenomics of dolutegravir: A scoping review of evidence, gaps and clinical implications

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Dolutegravir underpins modern first‐ and second‐line HIV treatment regimens; however, interindividual variability in its disposition and tolerability presents challenges for optimal use. This scoping review mapped current evidence on the pharmacogenomics of dolutegravir, focusing on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and methodological limitations ...

Genomic Insights Into Risperidone Treatment Outcomes in Children and Adolescents: Experience From a Psychiatric Hospital Serving Rural Youth

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Risperidone is a commonly used antipsychotic for treating psychiatric illness in children and adolescents. There is a large variability in risperidone response and discontinuation rates remain high. Pharmacogenomics offers the opportunity to improve risperidone outcomes, yet studies in pediatric populations are limited.

Resolving CYP2D6 Structural Complexity with Long‐Read Sequencing: Implications for Tamoxifen Precision Dosing in Thai Breast Cancer Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6)‐mediated bioactivation of tamoxifen to endoxifen is a key determinant of therapeutic efficacy in estrogen receptor‐positive breast cancer. In Asian populations, the high prevalence of structurally complex CYP2D6 alleles complicates conventional genotyping, limiting accurate genotype–phenotype correlation.
