A catalog of genetic loci associated with kidney function from analyses of a million individuals

Matthias Wuttke, +327 more
TL;DR: Trans-ancestry meta-analysis of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from 1,046,070 individuals identifies 264 associated loci, providing a resource of molecular targets for translational research of chronic kidney disease.

Evidence of a Causal Relationship Between Adiponectin Levels and Insulin Sensitivity A Mendelian Randomization Study

TL;DR: The observed association between higher adiponectin levels and increased insulin sensitivity is likely to represent a causal relationship partly mediated by reduced adiposity, and adjustment for BMI and waist circumference partly explained the association.
Journal ArticleDOI

A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for adiponectin levels in East Asians identifies a novel locus near WDR11-FGFR2

TL;DR: The identification of a novel adiponectin-associated locus on chromosome 10 near WDR11-FGFR2 and the independence of two pairs of closely located loci (<2 Mb) on chromosome 16 at CMIP and CDH13, and on chromosome 12 at GPR109A and ZNF664 are confirmed.

A Large-Scale Multi-ancestry Genome-wide Study Accounting for Smoking Behavior Identifies Multiple Significant Loci for Blood Pressure

Yun J. Sung, +296 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed genome-wide association meta-analyses of systolic and diastolic BP incorporating gene-smoking interactions in 610,091 individuals.
