Analysis of 12 GWAS-Linked Loci With Parkinson's Disease in the Chinese Han Population.

ABSTRACT: A recent large-scale European-originated genome-wide association study identified 38 novel independent risk signals in 37 loci for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, whether these new loci are associated with PD in Asian populations remains elusive. The present study aimed to explore the relationship between the 12 most relevant loci with larger absolute values for these new risk loci and PD in the Chinese Han population. We performed a case-control study including 527 PD patients and 435 healthy controls. In the allele model, it was found that rs10748818/GBF1 was associated with PD in the Chinese Han population [p = 0.035, odds ratio (OR) 1.221, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.014-1.472.

Validation of Susceptibility Loci for Vitiligo Identified by GWAS in the Chinese Han Population.

Project description:Forty-nine susceptible loci have been reported to be significantly associated with vitiligo by genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in European-derived whites. To date, some of these reported susceptibility loci have not yet been validated in the Chinese Han population. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the 16 reported susceptible loci in European-derived whites were associated with vitiligo in the Chinese Han population. Imputation was performed using our previous GWAS dataset by IMPUTE v2.2.2. The 16 imputed top single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with suggestive signals, together with the reported SNPs, were genotyped in a total of 2581 patients and 2579 controls by the Sequenom MassARRAY system. PLINK 2.0 software was used to perform association analysis. The dbSNP database, HaploReg, and eQTL data were adopted to annotate the biological function of the SNPs. Finally, four SNPs from three loci were significantly associated with vitiligo, including rs3747517 (P = 1.29 × 10-3, OR = 0.87) in 2q24.2, rs4807000 (P = 7.78 × 10-24, OR = 0.66) and rs6510827 (P = 3.65 × 10-5, OR = 1.19) in 19p13.3, and rs4822024 (P = 6.37 × 10-10, OR = 0.67) in 22q13.2. According to the dbSNP database, rs3747517 is a missense variant of IFIH1, rs4807000 and rs6510827 are located in TICAM1, and rs4822024 is located 6 kb upstream of TEF. Further bioinformatics analysis by HaploReg and eQTL found that rs4807000, rs6510827, and rs4822024 are involved in regulating gene expression. Our study revealed the strong association of 2q24.2 (rs3747517), 19p13.3 (rs4807000, rs6510827), and 22q13.2 (rs4822024) with the risk of vitiligo in the Chinese Han population, which implicates common factors for vitiligo across different ethnicities, and helps expand the understanding of the genetic basis of this disease.

Replication of Gout/Urate Concentrations GWAS Susceptibility Loci Associated with Gout in a Han Chinese Population.

Project description:Gout is a chronic disease resulting from elevated serum urate (SU). Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified dozens of susceptibility loci for SU/gout, but few have been conducted for Chinese descent. Here, we try to extensively investigate whether these loci contribute to gout risk in Han Chinese. A total of 2255 variants in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with GWAS identified SU/gout associated variants were analyzed in a Han Chinese cohort of 1255 gout patients and 1848 controls. Cumulative genetic risk score analysis was performed to assess the cumulative effect of multiple "risk" variants on gout incidence. 23 variants (41%) of LD pruned variants set (n = 56) showed nominal association with gout in our sample (p < 0.05). Some of the previously reported gout associated loci (except ALDH16A1), including ABCG2, SLC2A9, GCKR, ALDH2 and CNIH2, were replicated. Cumulative genetic risk score analyses showed that the risk of gout increased for individuals with the growing number (≥8) of the risk alleles on gout associated loci. Most of the gout associated loci identified in previous GWAS were confirmed in an independent Chinese cohort, and the SU associated loci also confer susceptibility to gout. These findings provide important information of the genetic association of gout.

Sporadic Parkinson's Disease Potential Risk Loci Identified in Han Ancestry of Chinese Mainland.

Project description:Recent investigations demonstrated that genetic factors might play an important role in sporadic Parkinson's disease (sPD). To clarify the specific loci susceptibility to sPD, we analyze the relationship between 30 candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and sPD in the population of Han ancestry from Chinese mainland (HACM) by using genome-wide association study, sequenom massARRAY, DNA sequence, and biological information analysis. Results showed that the subjects carrying the T allele of rs863108 and rs28499371 exhibited a decreased risk for sPD. The subjects carrying the T allele of rs80315856 exhibited an increased risk for sPD. The A/T genotype of rs863108 and the C/T genotype of rs28499371 were a potential increased risk for sPD, and the G/T genotype of rs80315856 and T/T genotype of rs2270568 were a potential decreased risk for sPD. The minor allele frequency (MAF) of rs80315856 and rs2270568 was higher in sPD. The T allele of rs80315856 and rs2270568 might be a risk locus for sPD. Our data suggested that the alteration of these SNPs might play some roles through changing/affecting LINC01524/LOC105372666, DMRT2/SMARCA2, PLEKHN1, and FLJ23172/FNDC3B genes in the pathogenesis of sPD.

Network-assisted analysis of primary Sjogren's syndrome GWAS data in Han Chinese.

Project description:Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a complex autoimmune disorder. So far, genetic research in pSS has lagged far behind and the underlying biological mechanism is unclear. Further exploring existing genome-wide association study (GWAS) data is urgently expected to uncover disease-related gene combination patterns. Herein, we conducted a network-based analysis by integrating pSS GWAS in Han Chinese with a protein-protein interactions network to identify pSS candidate genes. After module detection and evaluation, 8 dense modules covering 40 genes were obtained for further functional annotation. Additional 31 MHC genes with significant gene-level P-values (sigMHC-gene) were also remained. The combined module genes and sigMHC-genes, a total of 71 genes, were denoted as pSS candidate genes. Of these pSS candidates, 14 genes had been reported to be associated with any of pSS, RA, and SLE, including STAT4, GTF2I, HLA-DPB1, HLA-DRB1, PTTG1, HLA-DQB1, MBL2, TAP2, CFLAR, NFKBIE, HLA-DRA, APOM, HLA-DQA2 and NOTCH4. This is the first report of the network-assisted analysis for pSS GWAS data to explore combined gene patterns associated with pSS. Our study suggests that network-assisted analysis is a useful approach to gaining further insights into the biology of associated genes and providing important clues for future research into pSS etiology.

Association analysis of GWAS and candidate gene loci in a Chinese population with coronary heart disease.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:Coronary heart disease (CHD), the most severe form of coronary artery disease (CAD), is a complex disease that involves a variety of genetic and environmental factors. Recently, multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with CAD in Caucasians by genome-wide association (GWA) studies.However, the association of these SNPs with CHD in Asian populations has not yet been established. Here, we aim to investigate the genetic etiology of CHD in a Chinese population by genotyping SNPs previously been associated with CHD in other ethic origin in GWAS or candidate gene studies. METHODS:Five SNPs, rs17114036, rs9369640, rs515135, rs579459 and rs8055236, from 5 different loci were genotyped using a sequenom Mass array system in 545CHD patients and 1008 unrelated controls from a Chinese population. RESULTS:Our study showed that SNP rs515135 is strongly associated with CHD in a Chinese Han population (P-value=0.00333, OR=1.48). We also detected significant difference of SNP rs579459 in APOB gene in patients withsevere CAD compared to patients with mild CAD. CONCLUSION:SNP rs515135 is associated with the susceptibility of CHD in Chinese Han population. The location of rs515135 in the APOB gene supports its potential involvement in the pathogenesis of CAD. Our study data also support that SNP rs579459 may be associated with the severity of CHD.

Mapping of Hepatic Expression Quantitative Trait Loci (eQTLs) in a Han Chinese Population [Expression analysis]

Project description:Elucidating the genetic basis underlying the variation in hepatic gene expression is of importance to understand disease etiology and drug metabolism variances. To date, no genome-wide eQTL analysis has been conducted in the Han Chinese, the largest ethnic group in the world. We performed a genome-wide eQTL mapping in a set of Han Chinese liver tissue (n=64). Normal (non-diseased) liver tissues were previously collected from 64 Chinese donors who provided informed consent. All samples were stored frozen at -80M-bM-^DM-^C from collection until processing for RNA and DNA extraction. DNA /Total RNA of the human liver tissue samples were extracted by using the RNA/DNA Mini Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany).each RNA sample were labeled and hybridized to the One-Color Agilent 60-mer Whole Human Genome Microarray (G4112F, GPL4133) at the Agilent Microarray Facility of Shanghai genomePilot Technology, Inc. The genome-wide scan was performed using the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0. We tested all expression traits for their associations with each of the QC passed SNPs using PLINK's assoc function for quantitative traits, which correlates allele dosage with changes in the trait.
