    The timing of puberty is a highly polygenic childhood trait that is epidemiologically associated with various adult diseases. Using 1000 Genomes Project–imputed genotype data in up to ∼370,000 women, we identify 389 independent signals (P < 5 × 10−8) for age at menarche, a milestone in female pubertal development. In Icelandic data, these signals explain ∼7.4% of the population variance in age at menarche, corresponding to ∼25% of the estimated heritability. We implicate ∼250 genes via coding variation or associated expression, demonstrating significant enrichment in neural tissues. Rare variants near the imprinted genes MKRN3 and DLK1 were identified, exhibiting large effects when paternally inherited. Mendelian randomization analyses suggest causal inverse associations, independent of body mass index (BMI), between puberty timing and risks for breast and endometrial cancers in women and prostate cancer in men. In aggregate, our findings highlight the complexity of the genetic regulation of puberty timing and support causal links with cancer susceptibility.

    NHLBI-CMREF Workshop Report on Pulmonary Vascular Disease Classification: JACC State-of-the-Art Review
    (Elsevier, 2021) Oldham, William M.; Hemnes, Anna R.; Aldred, Micheala A.; Barnard, John; Brittain, Evan L.; Chan, Stephen Y.; Cheng, Feixiong; Cho, Michael H.; Desai, Ankit A.; Garcia, Joe G.N.; Geraci, Mark W.; Ghiassian, Susan D.; Hall, Kathryn T.; Horn, Evelyn M.; Jain, Mohit; Kelly, Rachel S.; Leopold, Jane A.; Lindstrom, Sara; Modena, Brian D.; Nichols, William C.; Rhodes, Christopher J.; Sun, Wei; Sweatt, Andrew J.; Vanderpool, Rebecca R.; Wilkins, Martin R.; Wilmot, Beth; Zamanian, Roham T.; Fessel, Joshua P.; Aggarwal, Neil R.; Loscalzo, Joseph; Xiao, Lei; Medicine, School of Medicine
    The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the Cardiovascular Medical Research and Education Fund held a workshop on the application of pulmonary vascular disease omics data to the understanding, prevention, and treatment of pulmonary vascular disease. Experts in pulmonary vascular disease, omics, and data analytics met to identify knowledge gaps and formulate ideas for future research priorities in pulmonary vascular disease in line with National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Strategic Vision goals. The group identified opportunities to develop analytic approaches to multiomic datasets, to identify molecular pathways in pulmonary vascular disease pathobiology, and to link novel phenotypes to meaningful clinical outcomes. The committee suggested support for interdisciplinary research teams to develop and validate analytic methods, a national effort to coordinate biosamples and data, a consortium of preclinical investigators to expedite target evaluation and drug development, longitudinal assessment of molecular biomarkers in clinical trials, and a task force to develop a master clinical trials protocol for pulmonary vascular disease.
