Genome-wide Association Study in 79,366 European-ancestry Individuals Informs the Genetic Architecture of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels

Xia Jiang, +119 more
TL;DR: In a genome-wide association study of 79,366 individuals, Jiang et al. replicate four and identify two new genetic loci for serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and find evidence for a shared genetic basis with autoimmune diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale analyses of common and rare variants identify 12 new loci associated with atrial fibrillation

Ingrid E. Christophersen, +195 more
- 01 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: 12 new genetic loci that exceeded genome-wide significance, implicating genes involved in cardiac electrical and structural remodeling are identified, providing insights into the molecular basis of atrial fibrillation and may facilitate the identification of new potential targets for drug discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein-altering variants associated with body mass index implicate pathways that control energy intake and expenditure in obesity

Valérie Turcot, +489 more
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: Exome-wide analysis identifies rare and low-frequency coding variants associated with body mass index that confirm enrichment of neuronal genes and provide new evidence for adipocyte and energy expenditure biology, widening the potential of genetically supported therapeutic targets in obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trans-ancestry meta-analyses identify rare and common variants associated with blood pressure and hypertension

Praveen Surendran, +209 more
- 01 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: Thirty new blood pressure– or hypertension-associated genetic regions in the general population are identified, including 3 rare missense variants in RBM47, COL21A1 and RRAS with larger effects than common variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Population genetic differentiation of height and body mass index across Europe

Matthew R. Robinson, +57 more
- 01 Nov 2015 - 
TL;DR: It is found that many independent loci contribute to population genetic differences in height and body mass index in 9,416 individuals across 14 European countries.
