An international genome-wide meta-analysis of primary biliary cholangitis: Novel risk loci and candidate drugs
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUNDS & AIMS: Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease in which autoimmune destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ducts eventually leads to cirrhosis. Many patients have inadequate response to licensed medications, motivating the search for novel therapies. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and meta-analyses (GWMA) of PBC have identified numerous risk loci for this condition, providing insight into its aetiology. We undertook the largest GWMA of PBC to date, aiming to identify additional risk loci and prioritise candidate genes for in silico drug efficacy screening. METHODS: We combined new and existing genotype data for 10,516 cases and 20,772 controls from 5 European and 2 East Asian cohorts. RESULTS: 17 cells in the pathogenesis of this disease. Drug efficacy screening identified several medications predicted to be therapeutic in PBC, some of which are well-established in the treatment of other autoimmune disorders. CONCLUSIONS: This study has identified additional risk loci for PBC, provided a hierarchy of agents that could be trialled in this condition, and emphasised the value of genetic and genomic approaches to drug discovery in complex disorders. LAY SUMMARY: Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease that eventually leads to cirrhosis. In this study, we analysed genetic information from 10,516 people with PBC and 20,772 healthy individuals recruited in Canada, China, Italy, Japan, the UK, or the USA. We identified several genetic regions associated with PBC. Each of these regions contains several genes. For each region, we used diverse sources of evidence to help us choose the gene most likely to be involved in causing PBC. We used these 'candidate genes' to help us identify medications that are currently used for treatment of other conditions, which might also be useful for treatment of PBC.

These gene loci were significantly expressed in both European and Chinese populations, indicating a shared primary biliary cholangitis genetic architecture across different ethnicities.
“These gene loci were significantly expressed in both European and Chinese populations, indicating a shared primary biliary cholangitis genetic architecture across different ethnicities.”

The Results section, ‘The genetic architecture of PBC is broadly shared across European and Asian populations,’ reports concordant risk signals and calls the shared architecture preliminary evidence. But the paper studies genetic association, not gene expression, and the Results section on newly identified loci says unequivocal association was evident in both European and Asian panels at six loci, not all loci. Its cross-population conclusion concerns Asian cohorts, not Chinese participants alone. (LLM, conf=0.88)

More than 60 non-HLA susceptibility regions have been identified in PBC pathogenesis.
“In addition to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) locus, more than 60 non-HLA susceptibility regions have been identified in PBC pathogenesis, including tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 15 (TNFSF15), Interleukin 12 A (IL12A), Interleukin 12 receptor (IL12R), Nuclear Factor Kappa B Subunit 1 (NFKB1) and other immune-associated genes6–11.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
