Genomic correlation, shared loci, and causal relationship between obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome: a large-scale genome-wide cross-trait analysis

Qianwen Liu et al.

Summary: This study found a genetic correlation between PCOS and obesity-related traits, including adult BMI, childhood BMI, and WHR. Cross-trait meta-analysis identified shared loci between PCOS and obesity-related traits. Mendelian randomization supported the causal role of adult BMI and childhood BMI in PCOS, but not WHR or WHRadjBMI. These findings provide insights into the shared genetic basis of obesity and PCOS and emphasize the role of weight management in PCOS prevention.

Investigating asthma heterogeneity through shared and distinct genetics: Insights from genome-wide cross-trait analysis

Zhaozhong Zhu et al.

Summary: Asthma is a complex respiratory disease with heterogeneous mechanisms influenced by shared and distinct genetic factors. Large-scale GWAS studies have revealed shared and unique genetic components between asthma subtypes, highlighting the genetic basis of the disease's heterogeneity. Analytic approaches such as genome-wide cross-trait analysis provide insights into the genetic architecture of asthma and can be applied to other complex traits.

Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms with insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity, and diabetes in women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus

Rashmi B. Prasad et al.

Summary: This study found that women with a history of GDM had genetic susceptibility to impaired insulin secretion and sensitivity, ultimately leading to the development of diabetes. Specific SNPs near ADCY5, IRS1, and ADAMTS9 genes were associated with changes in insulin resistance and secretion, and genetic risk scores showed associations with both insulin resistance and the disposition index.

Polymorphic variants of bovine ADCY5 gene identified in GWAS analysis were significantly associated with ovarian morphological related traits

Jie Li et al.

Summary: This study identified three novel indel mutations of the bovine ADCY5 gene, two of which were significantly correlated with ovarian phenotypic traits or corpus luteum or albicans traits. These findings contribute to improving female fertility in cattle through the application of molecular marker-assisted selection (MAS), which can accelerate the development of the cattle industry.

Bias in two-sample Mendelian randomization when using heritable covariable-adjusted summary associations

Fernando Pires Hartwig et al.

Summary: The study suggests that the use of covariable-adjusted summary associations in two-sample Mendelian randomization should generally be avoided. If necessary, careful consideration of the causal relationships underlying the data, including potentially unmeasured confounders, is required.

Higher risk of type 2 diabetes in women with hyperandrogenic polycystic ovary syndrome

Sofia Persson et al.

Summary: This study found that polycystic ovary syndrome is an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes, regardless of BMI adjustment. Women with the hyperandrogenic PCOS phenotype face a higher risk of type 2 diabetes than those with the normoandrogenic PCOS phenotype.

The trans-ancestral genomic architecture of glycemic traits

Ji Chen et al.

Summary: A meta-analysis of GWAS including up to 281,416 individuals without diabetes identified 242 loci associated with glycemic traits, with 99 novel loci discovered. The trans-ancestry approach in the study improved the discovery of new loci and the fine-mapping of variants.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes, Coronary Heart Disease, and Stroke

Tiantian Zhu et al.

Summary: Genetically predicted PCOS showed no association with the risk of diabetes, coronary heart disease, or stroke, suggesting that PCOS itself does not increase the risk of these outcomes. The association between PCOS and cardiometabolic diseases may be explained by other features of PCOS such as obesity, elevated testosterone, and low sex hormone binding globulin. Efforts to prevent cardiometabolic complications in PCOS should target women with high-risk features rather than all women with PCOS.
