Meta-analysis identifies novel risk loci and yields systematic insights into the biology of male-pattern baldness

Male-pattern baldness (MPB) is a common and highly heritable trait characterized by androgen-dependent, progressive hair loss from the scalp. Here, we carry out the largest GWAS meta-analysis of MPB to date, comprising 10,846 early-onset cases and 11,672 controls from eight independent cohorts. We i...

Here, we carry out the largest GWAS meta-analysis of MPB to date, comprising 10,846 early-onset cases and 11,672 controls from eight independent cohorts. We identify 63 MPB-associated loci ( P &lt;5 × 10 −8 , METAL) of which 23 have not been reported previously. The 63 loci explain ∼39% of the phenotypic variance in MPB and highlight several plausible candidate genes ( FGF5 , IRF4 , DKK2 ) and pathways (melatonin signalling, adipogenesis) that are likely to be implicated in the key-pathophysiological features of MPB and may represent promising targets for the development of novel therapeutic options. The data provide molecular evidence that rather than being an isolated trait, MPB shares a substantial biological basis with numerous other human phenotypes and may deserve evaluation as an early prognostic marker, for example, for prostate cancer, sudden cardiac arrest and neurodegenerative disorders. Male-pattern baldness is a common condition in which hair is progressively lost from the scalp. Here, the authors find 23 new genetic variants associated with this condition and suggest that it is not an isolated trait but may share an underlying biological basis with various diseases.</description><identifier>ISSN: 2041-1723</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2041-1723</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1038/ncomms14694</identifier><identifier>PMID: 28272467</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>London: Nature Publishing Group UK</publisher><subject>3-Oxo-5-alpha-Steroid 4-Dehydrogenase - genetics ; 38/39 ; 45 ; 45/43 ; 631/208/205/2138 ; 631/208/212 ; Adipogenesis - genetics ; Alopecia - genetics ; Androgens ; Baldness ; Biology ; Case-Control Studies ; Dentistry ; Epidemiology ; Fibroblast Growth Factor 5 - genetics ; Genetic Association Studies ; Genome-Wide Association Study ; Genomes ; Genomics ; Genotype ; Hair loss ; Health care ; Health sciences ; Hospitals ; Humanities and Social Sciences ; Humans ; Intercellular Signaling Peptides and Proteins - genetics ; Interferon Regulatory Factors - genetics ; Male ; Medical research ; Melatonin ; Membrane Proteins - genetics ; Meta-analysis ; multidisciplinary ; Oncology ; Phenotype ; Preventive medicine ; Prostate cancer ; Science ; Science (multidisciplinary) ; Signal Transduction - genetics ; Trans-Activators - genetics</subject><ispartof>Nature communications, 2017-03, Vol.8 (1), p.14694-14694, Article 14694</ispartof><rights>The Author(s) 2017</rights><rights>Copyright Nature Publishing Group Mar 2017</rights><rights>Copyright © 2017, The Author(s) 2017 The Author(s)</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c512t-807e13288412a0e52543f0185f8599eed48361a0eb715ce4cd9b099a77f37e0d3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c512t-807e13288412a0e52543f0185f8599eed48361a0eb715ce4cd9b099a77f37e0d3</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-6713-2214 ; 0000-0001-9251-070X</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://www.proquest.com/docview/1875124358/fulltextPDF?pq-origsite=primo$$EPDF$$P50$$Gproquest$$Hfree_for_read</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://www.proquest.com/docview/1875124358?pq-origsite=primo$$EHTML$$P50$$Gproquest$$Hfree_for_read</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>230,314,727,780,784,885,25753,27924,27925,37012,37013,44590,53791,53793,75126</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28272467$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Heilmann-Heimbach, Stefanie</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Herold, Christine</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Hochfeld, Lara M.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Hillmer, Axel M.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Nyholt, Dale R.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Hecker, Julian</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Javed, Asif</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Chew, Elaine G.

Here, we carry out the largest GWAS meta-analysis of MPB to date, comprising 10,846 early-onset cases and 11,672 controls from eight independent cohorts. We identify 63 MPB-associated loci ( P &lt;5 × 10 −8 , METAL) of which 23 have not been reported previously. The 63 loci explain ∼39% of the phenotypic variance in MPB and highlight several plausible candidate genes ( FGF5 , IRF4 , DKK2 ) and pathways (melatonin signalling, adipogenesis) that are likely to be implicated in the key-pathophysiological features of MPB and may represent promising targets for the development of novel therapeutic options. The data provide molecular evidence that rather than being an isolated trait, MPB shares a substantial biological basis with numerous other human phenotypes and may deserve evaluation as an early prognostic marker, for example, for prostate cancer, sudden cardiac arrest and neurodegenerative disorders. Male-pattern baldness is a common condition in which hair is progressively lost from the scalp. Here, the authors find 23 new genetic variants associated with this condition and suggest that it is not an isolated trait but may share an underlying biological basis with various diseases.</abstract><cop>London</cop><pub>Nature Publishing Group UK</pub><pmid>28272467</pmid><doi>10.1038/ncomms14694</doi><tpages>1</tpages><orcidid>https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6713-2214</orcidid><orcidid>https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9251-070X</orcidid><oa>free_for_read</oa></addata></record>
