A comprehensive 1000 Genomes–based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease

Majid Nikpay, +167 more
- 07 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of coronary artery disease (CAD) cases and controls, interrogating 6.7 million common (minor allele frequency (MAF) > 0.05) and 2.7 millions low-frequency (0.005 < MAF < 0.5) variants.

A comprehensive 1000 Genomes-based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease

Majid Nikpay, +150 more
TL;DR: A GWAS meta-analysis of CAD cases and controls provides a comprehensive survey of the fine genetic architecture of CAD, showing that genetic susceptibility to this common disease is largely determined by common SNPs of small effect size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of nine common type 2 diabetes risk polymorphisms in Asian Indian Sikhs: PPARG2 (Pro12Ala), IGF2BP2, TCF7L2 and FTO variants confer a significant risk.

TL;DR: This is first study reporting the role of some recently emerged loci with T2D in a high risk population of Asian Indian origin and the impact of these variants on body mass index, waist to hip ratio, fasting insulin, and glucose and lipid levels using multiple linear regression analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

HLA-B27 subtypes in Asian patients with ankylosing spondylitis Evidence for new associations

TL;DR: The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in combination with the sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes (SSOs) was used to analyse the polymorphism in exon 2 and 3 of HLA-B27 in two Asian groups with different genetic HLA structures: Indian and Thai populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of new susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes and shared etiological pathways with coronary heart disease

Wei Zhao, +90 more
- 04 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide, multi-ancestry study of genetic variation for type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease finds variants associated with both outcomes implicate new pathways as well as targets of existing drugs, including icosapent ethyl and adipocyte fatty-acid-binding protein.
