Blood pressure is a heritable trait influenced by several biological pathways and responsive to environmental stimuli. Over one billion people worldwide have hypertension (>=140 mm Hg systolic blood pressure or >=90 mm Hg diastolic blood pressure). Even small increments in blood pressure are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. This genome-wide association study of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, which used a multi-stage design in 200,000 individuals of European descent, identified sixteen novel loci: six of these loci contain genes previously known or suspected to regulate blood pressure (GUCY1A3-GUCY1B3, NPR3-C5orf23, ADM, FURIN-FES, GOSR2, GNAS-EDN3); the other ten provide new clues to blood pressure physiology. A genetic risk score based on 29 genome-wide significant variants was associated with hypertension, left ventricular wall thickness, stroke and coronary artery disease, but not kidney disease or kidney function. We also observed associations with blood pressure in East Asian, South Asian and African ancestry individuals. Our findings provide new insights into the genetics and biology of blood pressure, and suggest potential novel therapeutic pathways for cardiovascular disease prevention.

volume = {349}, year = {2014}, month = {2014 Jul 10}, pages = {g4164}, abstract = {

OBJECTIVE: To use the rs1229984 variant in the alcohol dehydrogenase 1B gene (ADH1B) as an instrument to investigate the causal role of alcohol in cardiovascular disease.

DESIGN: Mendelian randomisation meta-analysis of 56 epidemiological studies.

PARTICIPANTS: 261 991 individuals of European descent, including 20 259 coronary heart disease cases and 10 164 stroke events. Data were available on ADH1B rs1229984 variant, alcohol phenotypes, and cardiovascular biomarkers.

MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Odds ratio for coronary heart disease and stroke associated with the ADH1B variant in all individuals and by categories of alcohol consumption.

RESULTS: Carriers of the A-allele of ADH1B rs1229984 consumed 17.2\% fewer units of alcohol per week (95\% confidence interval 15.6\% to 18.9\%), had a lower prevalence of binge drinking (odds ratio 0.78 (95\% CI 0.73 to 0.84)), and had higher abstention (odds ratio 1.27 (1.21 to 1.34)) than non-carriers. Rs1229984 A-allele carriers had lower systolic blood pressure (-0.88 (-1.19 to -0.56) mm Hg), interleukin-6 levels (-5.2\% (-7.8 to -2.4\%)), waist circumference (-0.3 (-0.6 to -0.1) cm), and body mass index (-0.17 (-0.24 to -0.10) kg/m(2)). Rs1229984 A-allele carriers had lower odds of coronary heart disease (odds ratio 0.90 (0.84 to 0.96)). The protective association of the ADH1B rs1229984 A-allele variant remained the same across all categories of alcohol consumption (P=0.83 for heterogeneity). Although no association of rs1229984 was identified with the combined subtypes of stroke, carriers of the A-allele had lower odds of ischaemic stroke (odds ratio 0.83 (0.72 to 0.95)).

CONCLUSIONS: Individuals with a genetic variant associated with non-drinking and lower alcohol consumption had a more favourable cardiovascular profile and a reduced risk of coronary heart disease than those without the genetic variant. This suggests that reduction of alcohol consumption, even for light to moderate drinkers, is beneficial for cardiovascular health.

BACKGROUND: Statins increase the risk of new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus. We aimed to assess whether this increase in risk is a consequence of inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR), the intended drug target.

METHODS: We used single nucleotide polymorphisms in the HMGCR gene, rs17238484 (for the main analysis) and rs12916 (for a subsidiary analysis) as proxies for HMGCR inhibition by statins. We examined associations of these variants with plasma lipid, glucose, and insulin concentrations; bodyweight; waist circumference; and prevalent and incident type 2 diabetes. Study-specific effect estimates per copy of each LDL-lowering allele were pooled by meta-analysis. These findings were compared with a meta-analysis of new-onset type 2 diabetes and bodyweight change data from randomised trials of statin drugs. The effects of statins in each randomised trial were assessed using meta-analysis.

FINDINGS: Data were available for up to 223 463 individuals from 43 genetic studies. Each additional rs17238484-G allele was associated with a mean 0{\textperiodcentered}06 mmol/L (95\% CI 0{\textperiodcentered}05-0{\textperiodcentered}07) lower LDL cholesterol and higher body weight (0{\textperiodcentered}30 kg, 0{\textperiodcentered}18-0{\textperiodcentered}43), waist circumference (0{\textperiodcentered}32 cm, 0{\textperiodcentered}16-0{\textperiodcentered}47), plasma insulin concentration (1{\textperiodcentered}62\%, 0{\textperiodcentered}53-2{\textperiodcentered}72), and plasma glucose concentration (0{\textperiodcentered}23\%, 0{\textperiodcentered}02-0{\textperiodcentered}44). The rs12916 SNP had similar effects on LDL cholesterol, bodyweight, and waist circumference. The rs17238484-G allele seemed to be associated with higher risk of type 2 diabetes (odds ratio [OR] per allele 1{\textperiodcentered}02, 95\% CI 1{\textperiodcentered}00-1{\textperiodcentered}05); the rs12916-T allele association was consistent (1{\textperiodcentered}06, 1{\textperiodcentered}03-1{\textperiodcentered}09). In 129 170 individuals in randomised trials, statins lowered LDL cholesterol by 0{\textperiodcentered}92 mmol/L (95\% CI 0{\textperiodcentered}18-1{\textperiodcentered}67) at 1-year of follow-up, increased bodyweight by 0{\textperiodcentered}24 kg (95\% CI 0{\textperiodcentered}10-0{\textperiodcentered}38 in all trials; 0{\textperiodcentered}33 kg, 95\% CI 0{\textperiodcentered}24-0{\textperiodcentered}42 in placebo or standard care controlled trials and -0{\textperiodcentered}15 kg, 95\% CI -0{\textperiodcentered}39 to 0{\textperiodcentered}08 in intensive-dose vs moderate-dose trials) at a mean of 4{\textperiodcentered}2 years (range 1{\textperiodcentered}9-6{\textperiodcentered}7) of follow-up, and increased the odds of new-onset type 2 diabetes (OR 1{\textperiodcentered}12, 95\% CI 1{\textperiodcentered}06-1{\textperiodcentered}18 in all trials; 1{\textperiodcentered}11, 95\% CI 1{\textperiodcentered}03-1{\textperiodcentered}20 in placebo or standard care controlled trials and 1{\textperiodcentered}12, 95\% CI 1{\textperiodcentered}04-1{\textperiodcentered}22 in intensive-dose vs moderate dose trials).

INTERPRETATION: The increased risk of type 2 diabetes noted with statins is at least partially explained by HMGCR inhibition.
