A Genetic Risk Score Is Associated with Weight Loss Following Roux-en Y Gastric Bypass Surgery

TL;DR: Two GRSs composed of BMI and WHR-associated SNPs with significant impact on weight loss after RYGB surgery are identified using random forest analysis as a SNP selection tool and may be useful to pre-surgically evaluate the risks for patients undergoing RyGB surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

A methylome-wide mQTL analysis reveals associations of methylation sites with GAD1 and HDAC3 SNPs and a general psychiatric risk score.

TL;DR: Results show how distinct SNPs linked with psychiatric diseases are associated with epigenetic shifts with relevance for gene expression, giving a novel insight on how genetic variants may modulate risks for the development of psychiatric diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Postprandial alterations in whole-blood DNA methylation are mediated by changes in white blood cell composition

TL;DR: These results have major methodologic implications for genome-wide methylation studies because they highlight the strong underlying effects of changes in leukocyte fractions on CpG methylation patterns as well as the potential importance of meal-standardized sampling procedures for future investigations when alterations in white blood cell fractions are unavailable.
