Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Two Novel Loci Associated with Female Stress and Urgency Urinary Incontinence.
Genome-wide association studies have not identified replicable genetic risk loci for stress or urgency urinary incontinence.. We carried out a discovery stage, case control, genome-wide association study in 3 independent discovery cohorts of European women (8,979) for stress incontinence, urgency incontinence, and any incontinence phenotypes. We conducted replication in 6 additional studies of European ancestry (4,069). We collected bladder biopsies from women with incontinence (50) to further investigate bladder expression of implicated genes and pathways and used symptom questionnaires for phenotyping. We conducted meta-analyses using inverse variance fixed effects models and whole transcriptome analyses using Affymetrix® arrays with replication with TaqMan® polymerase chain reaction.. In the discovery stage, we identified 16 single nucleotide polymorphisms genotyped or imputed at 5 loci that reached genome-wide significance (p <5×10. We uncovered 2 new risk loci near the genes endothelin 1 ( Topics: Case-Control Studies; Endothelin-1; Female; Genetic Loci; Genome-Wide Association Study; Humans; Middle Aged; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Receptors, Immunologic; Urinary Incontinence, Stress; White People | 2021 |
