Abstract

Approaches exploiting trait distribution extremes may be used to identify loci associated with common traits, but it is unknown whether these loci are generalizable to the broader population. In a genome-wide search for loci associated with the upper versus the lower 5th percentiles of body mass index, height and waist-to-hip ratio, as well as clinical classes of obesity, including up to 263,407 individuals of European ancestry, we identified 4 new loci (IGFBP4, H6PD, RSRC1 and PPP2R2A) influencing height detected in the distribution tails and 7 new loci (HNF4G, RPTOR, GNAT2, MRPS33P4, ADCY9, HS6ST3 and ZZZ3) for clinical classes of obesity. Further, we find a large overlap in genetic structure and the distribution of variants between traits based on extremes and the general population and little etiological heterogeneity between obesity subgroups. © 2013 Nature America, Inc.

Abstract

Background: The majority of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have the obesity phenotype, but no therapies specifically targeting obesity in HFpEF exist., Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the design and baseline characteristics of 2 trials of semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, in patients with the obesity HFpEF phenotype: STEP-HFpEF (Semaglutide Treatment Effect in People with obesity and HFpEF; NCT04788511) and STEP-HFpEF DM (Semaglutide Treatment Effect in People with obesity and HFpEF and type 2 diabetes; NCT04916470)., Methods: Both STEP-HFpEF and STEP-HFpEF DM are international multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials that randomized adults with HFpEF and a body mass index ≥30 kg/m 2 to once-weekly semaglutide at a dose of 2.4 mg or placebo. Participants were eligible if they had a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥45%; NYHA functional class II to IV; a Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)-Clinical Summary Score (CSS) <90 points; and ≥1 of the following: elevated filling pressures, elevated natriuretic peptides plus structural echocardiographic abnormalities, recent heart failure hospitalization plus ongoing diuretic use, and/or structural abnormalities. The dual primary endpoints are the 52-week change in the KCCQ-CSS and body weight., Results: In STEP-HFpEF and STEP-HFpEF DM (N = 529 and N = 617, respectively), nearly half were women, and most had severe obesity (median body mass index of 37 kg/m 2 ) with typical features of HFpEF (median LVEF of 57%, frequent comorbidities, and elevated natriuretic peptides). Most participants received diuretic agents and renin-angiotensin blockers at baseline, and approximately one-third were on mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor use was rare in STEP-HFpEF but not in STEP HFpEF DM (32%). Patients in both trials had marked symptomatic and functional impairments (KCCQ-CSS ∼59 points, 6-minute walking distance ∼300 m)., Conclusions: In total, STEP-HFpEF program randomized 1,146 participants with the obesity phenotype of HFpEF and will determine whether semaglutide improves symptoms, physical limitations, and exercise function in addition to weight loss in this vulnerable group., Competing Interests: Funding Support and Author Disclosures The STEP-HFpEF and STEP-HFpEF DM trials were funded by Novo Nordisk.

3. Naturally Occurring Variants in LRP1 (Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Related Protein 1) Affect HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) Metabolism Through ABCA1 (ATP-Binding Cassette A1) and SR-B1 (Scavenger Receptor Class B Type 1) in Humans.

Abstract

Objective: Studies into the role of LRP1 (low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1) in human lipid metabolism are scarce. Although it is known that a common variant in LRP1 (rs116133520) is significantly associated with HDL-C (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol), the mechanism underlying this observation is unclear. In this study, we set out to study the functional effects of 2 rare LRP1 variants identified in subjects with extremely low HDL-C levels., Approach and Results: In 2 subjects with HDL-C below the first percentile for age and sex and moderately elevated triglycerides, we identified 2 rare variants in LRP1 : p.Val3244Ile and p.Glu3983Asp. Both variants decrease LRP1 expression and stability. We show in a series of translational experiments that these variants culminate in reduced trafficking of ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette A1) to the cell membrane. This is accompanied by an increase in cell surface expression of SR-B1 (scavenger receptor class B type 1). Combined these effects may contribute to low HDL-C levels in our study subjects. Supporting these findings, we provide epidemiological evidence that rs116133520 is associated with apo (apolipoprotein) A1 but not with apoB levels., Conclusions: This study provides the first evidence that rare variants in LRP1 are associated with changes in human lipid metabolism. Specifically, this study shows that LRP1 may affect HDL metabolism by virtue of its effect on both ABCA1 and SR-B1., (© 2018 American Heart Association, Inc.)

Rationale: Macrophages face a substantial amount of cholesterol after the ingestion of apoptotic cells, and the LIPA (lysosomal acid lipase) has a major role in hydrolyzing cholesteryl esters in the endocytic compartment., Objective: Here, we directly investigated the role of LIPA-mediated clearance of apoptotic cells both in vitro and in vivo., Methods and Results: We show that LIPA inhibition causes a defective efferocytic response because of impaired generation of 25-hydroxycholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol. Reduced synthesis of 25-hydroxycholesterol after LIPA inhibition contributed to defective mitochondria-associated membrane leading to mitochondrial oxidative stress-induced NLRP3 (NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing) inflammasome activation and caspase-1-dependent Rac1 (Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1) degradation. A secondary event consisting of failure to appropriately activate liver X receptor-mediated pathways led to mitigation of cholesterol efflux and apoptotic cell clearance. In mice, LIPA inhibition caused defective clearance of apoptotic lymphocytes and stressed erythrocytes by hepatic and splenic macrophages, culminating in splenomegaly and splenic iron accumulation under hypercholesterolemia., Conclusions: Our findings position lysosomal cholesterol hydrolysis as a critical process that prevents metabolic inflammation by enabling efficient macrophage apoptotic cell clearance., (© 2018 American Heart Association, Inc.)

Abstract

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 100 genetic variants contributing to BMI, a measure of body size, or waist-to-hip ratio (adjusted for BMI, WHRadjBMI), a measure of body shape. Body size and shape change as people grow older and these changes differ substantially between men and women. To systematically screen for age- and/or sex-specific effects of genetic variants on BMI and WHRadjBMI, we performed meta-analyses of 114 studies (up to 320,485 individuals of European descent) with genome-wide chip and/or Metabochip data by the Genetic Investigation of Anthropometric Traits (GIANT) Consortium. Each study tested the association of up to ~2.8M SNPs with BMI and WHRadjBMI in four strata (men ≤50y, men >50y, women ≤50y, women >50y) and summary statistics were combined in stratum-specific meta-analyses. We then screened for variants that showed age-specific effects (G x AGE), sex-specific effects (G x SEX) or age-specific effects that differed between men and women (G x AGE x SEX). For BMI, we identified 15 loci (11 previously established for main effects, four novel) that showed significant (FDR<5%) age-specific effects, of which 11 had larger effects in younger (<50y) than in older adults (≥50y). No sex-dependent effects were identified for BMI. For WHRadjBMI, we identified 44 loci (27 previously established for main effects, 17 novel) with sex-specific effects, of which 28 showed larger effects in women than in men, five showed larger effects in men than in women, and 11 showed opposite effects between sexes. No age-dependent effects were identified for WHRadjBMI. This is the first genome-wide interaction meta-analysis to report convincing evidence of age-dependent genetic effects on BMI. In addition, we confirm the sex-specificity of genetic effects on WHRadjBMI. These results may provide further insights into the biology that underlies weight change with age or the sexually dimorphism of body shape.

Abstract

Given the anthropometric differences between men and women and previous evidence of sex-difference in genetic effects, we conducted a genome-wide search for sexually dimorphic associations with height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and waist-to-hip-ratio (133,723 individuals) and took forward 348 SNPs into follow-up (additional 137,052 individuals) in a total of 94 studies. Seven loci displayed significant sex-difference (FDR<5%), including four previously established (near GRB14/COBLL1, LYPLAL1/SLC30A10, VEGFA, ADAMTS9) and three novel anthropometric trait loci (near MAP3K1, HSD17B4, PPARG), all of which were genome-wide significant in women (P<5×10(-8)), but not in men. Sex-differences were apparent only for waist phenotypes, not for height, weight, BMI, or hip circumference. Moreover, we found no evidence for genetic effects with opposite directions in men versus women. The PPARG locus is of specific interest due to its role in diabetes genetics and therapy. Our results demonstrate the value of sex-specific GWAS to unravel the sexually dimorphic genetic underpinning of complex traits., Competing Interests: I have read the journal's policy and we have the following conflicts: Kari Stefansson, Valgerdur Steinthorsdottir, and Gudmar Thorleifsson are employed by deCODE Genetics with stock/stock options in the company.
