Common variants in ZMIZ1 and near NGF confer risk for primary dysmenorrhoea

چکیده
Primary dysmenorrhoea, defined as painful menstrual cramps in the absence of pelvic pathology, is a common problem in women of reproductive age. Its aetiology and pathophysiology remain largely unknown. Here we performed a two-stage genome-wide association study and subsequent replication study to identify genetic factors associated with primary dysmenorrhoea in a total of 6,770 Chinese individuals. Our analysis provided evidence of a significant (P<5 × 10-8) association at rs76518691 in the gene ZMIZ1 and at rs7523831 near NGF. ZMIZ1 has previously been associated with several autoimmune diseases, and NGF plays a key role in the generation of pain and hyperalgesia and has been associated with migraine. These findings provide future directions for research on susceptibility mechanisms for primary dysmenorrhoea. Furthermore, our genetic architecture analysis provides molecular support for the heritability and polygenic nature of this condition.

Psoriasis (PS) and Crohn disease (CD) have been shown to be epidemiologically, pathologically, and therapeutically connected, but little is known about their shared genetic causes. We performed meta-analyses of five published genome-wide association studies on PS (2,529 cases and 4,955 controls) and CD (2,142 cases and 5,505 controls), followed up 20 loci that showed strongest evidence for shar...

Dysmenorrhoea, pain during menstruation, affects 40-95 per cent of menstruating women, and has been reported as the most common causes of regular absenteeism among young women. There are two types of dysmenorrhoea: primary and secondary. Primary dysmenorrhoea is a painful menstruation with no detectable organic disease and is more common in adolescent women. Secondary dysmenorrhoea is painful m...
