Identification of New Genes and Loci Associated With Bone Mineral Density Based on Mendelian Randomization

Liu, Yijun, Jin, Guang, Wang, Xue, Dong, Ying, Ding, Fupeng·2021·Frontiers in Genetics

Abstract

Bone mineral density (BMD) is a complex and highly hereditary trait that can lead to osteoporotic fractures. It is estimated that BMD is mainly affected by genetic factors (about 85%). BMD has been reported to be associated with both common and rare variants, and numerous loci related to BMD have been identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We systematically integrated expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data with GWAS summary statistical data. We mainly focused on the loci, which can affect gene expression, so Summary data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) analysis was implemented to investigate new genes and loci associated with BMD. We identified 12,477 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) regulating 564 genes, which are associated with BMD. The genetic mechanism we detected could make a contribution in the density of BMD in individuals and play an important role in understanding the pathophysiology of cataclasis.

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.
