Resistin is a cytokine derived from adipose tissue and is implicated in obesity-related insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Polymorphisms of the resistin gene (RETN) have been shown to affect the plasma resistin concentration. The aims of this study were to identify polymorphisms of RETN that influence plasma resistin concentration and to clarify the relation between plasma resistin level and metabolic disorders in an aged Japanese cohort. The study participants comprised 3133 individuals recruited to a population-based prospective cohort study (KING study). Plasma resistin concentration, BMI, abdominal circumference, blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose and serum insulin concentrations, HbA(1c) content and serum lipid profile were measured in all participants. The HOMA index of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was also calculated. Eleven polymorphisms of RETN were genotyped. A combination of ANOVA and multiple linear regression analysis in screening and large-scale subsets of the study population revealed that plasma resistin concentration was significantly associated with rs34861192 and rs3745368 polymorphisms of RETN. Multiple linear regression analysis with adjustment for age and sex also showed that the plasma resistin level was significantly associated with serum concentrations of HDL-cholesterol, triacylglycerol and insulin, as well as with BMI. Our results implicate the rs34861192 and rs3745368 polymorphisms of RETN as robust and independent determinants of plasma resistin concentration in the study population. In addition, plasma resistin level was associated with dyslipidaemia, serum insulin concentration and obesity. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00262691 Funding: This study was supported by Grants-in-Aids for Scientific Research from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology of Japan.

Summary: By conducting genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on ancestrally diverse populations, we identified 237 loci associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and further fine-mapped these loci. The majority of T2D associations were found to be driven by a single variant. In addition, our study showed that genetic risk scores derived from ancestrally diverse populations can enhance the transferability of T2D prediction across different populations.

Summary: This study evaluated postnatal growth trajectories in extremely and very preterm infants exposed to hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) in utero. The results showed that intrauterine exposure to HDP contributes to accelerated postnatal weight growth in infants during early childhood, and there were no significant sex differences in postnatal growth.

Summary: This study integrates large-scale GWAS data and functional genomic data to uncover genes and mechanisms involved in regulating blood lipids. Through enrichment analysis and identification of transcription factor binding sites, important genes and transcription factors related to lipid levels are discovered. Additionally, a framework is proposed to prioritize causal variants and genes at GWAS loci.

Summary: This study found that higher BMI in the Japanese population is causally associated with various cardiometabolic traits including high blood pressure, triglycerides, uric acid, low high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol, and eGFR. However, there was no significant association between genetic risk scores for BMI and individual-level cardiometabolic traits.

Long non-coding RNA TILR constitutively represses TP53 and apoptosis in lung cancer

Mika Iwai, Taisuke Kajino, Masahiro Nakatochi, Kiyoshi Yanagisawa, Yasuyuki Hosono, Hisanori Isomura, Yukako Shimada, Motoshi Suzuki, Ayumu Taguchi, Takashi Takahashi

Summary: In this study, a novel lncRNA called TILR was identified as a constitutive negative regulator of p53 expression, playing a role in the development of lung cancer. It was found that TILR interacts with the protein PCBP2 and binds to p53 mRNA, leading to the suppression of p53 expression and activation of downstream genes involved in apoptosis. Furthermore, TILR was shown to be involved in a positive feedback loop with p53 and Fanconi anemia pathway genes. These findings highlight the importance of TILR in regulating p53 expression and apoptosis in lung cancer.

Summary: This study investigates the association between HbA1c and blood glucose levels and their corresponding genetic loci in a non-diabetic Japanese population. The study identifies KCNQ1 and TMC6 loci as being associated with HbA1c levels, but no replication is found for the loci associated with blood glucose levels. Furthermore, the variant rs2299620 in KCNQ1 shows heterogeneity in its effect on HbA1c levels based on BMI grouping.

Summary: The study evaluated the population-based impact of smoking, drinking, and genetic factors on low HDL-C levels using data from the J-MICC Study. The findings showed that smoking, drinking, and certain genetic variants were associated with HDL-C levels, but there was no significant gene-environment interaction. The population-based impact of the genetic factor CETP rs3764261 was higher than that of smoking and lower than that of drinking.

Summary: In this study, three novel loci (FGF1, THSD7A, and LRP1) were identified to be associated with the survival of sporadic ALS patients. Decreased mRNA expression of FGF1 and THSD7A were also observed, which correlated with reduced viability of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived motor neurons from ALS patients.

Summary: The feasibility of global standard chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery in patients with esophageal cancer was assessed in this study. The study conducted at Nagoya University Hospital reviewed the outcomes of patients who received global standard chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery compared to those who received lower drug doses. The results showed that the global standard regimen was associated with more severe adverse events but no significant difference in resection rate or complications.
