Pervasive Sharing of Genetic Effects in Autoimmune Disease
Open accessAbstract
Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified numerous, replicable, genetic associations between common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and risk of common autoimmune and inflammatory (immune-mediated) diseases, some of which are shared between two diseases. Along with epidemiological and clinical evidence, this suggests that some genetic risk factors may be shared across diseases-as is the case with alleles in the Major Histocompatibility Locus. In this work we evaluate the extent of this sharing for 107 immune disease-risk SNPs in seven diseases: celiac disease, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and type 1 diabetes. We have developed a novel statistic for Cross Phenotype Meta-Analysis (CPMA) which detects association of a SNP to multiple, but not necessarily all, phenotypes. With it, we find evidence that 47/107 (44%) immune-mediated disease risk SNPs are associated to multiple-but not all-immune-mediated diseases (SNP-wise P(CPMA)<0.01). We also show that distinct groups of interacting proteins are encoded near SNPs which predispose to the same subsets of diseases; we propose these as the mechanistic basis of shared disease risk. We are thus able to leverage genetic data across diseases to construct biological hypotheses about the underlying mechanism of pathogenesis.

Statistics
Figures
![Figure 1 Patterns of association across diseases correlate with protein-protein interactions. A: 47 SNPs with evidence of association to multiple diseases (Pcpma<0.01) fall into groups clustered by the pattern of association across diseases. Clusters are numbered arbitrarily. B: Clusters show different patterns of association across diseases. We summarize the differential disease effects of each cluster with a cumulative association statistic (Fisher's method for combining p values). These patterns are different for each cluster, suggesting each represents a different co-morbid mechanism. Note that these figures are based on the same underlying association statistics the clustering in the first panel is derived from. C: proteins encoded within the linkage disequilibrium scope around SNPs in the same cluster interact either directly or via common intermediates. Three of our four clusters have significant protein inter-connectivity (permuted P<0.05; see Materials and Methods and [19] for details).](/paper-figures/38746ea8fd7b4dd18eb89497c065b1ad/pervasive-sharing-of-genetic-effects-in-autoimmune-disease-figure-1.jpg)

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.
