• W2933886535 abstract "SUMMARY Cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and in particular cerebrovascular and ischemic heart diseases, are leading causes of death globally. 1 Lowering circulating lipids is an important treatment strategy to reduce risk. 2,3 However, some pharmaceutical mechanisms of reducing CVD may increase risk of fatty liver disease or other metabolic disorders. 4,5,6 To identify potential novel therapeutic targets, which may reduce risk of CVD without increasing risk of metabolic disease, we focused on the simultaneous evaluation of quantitative traits related to liver function and CVD. Using a combination of low-coverage (5×) whole-genome sequencing and targeted genotyping, deep genotype imputation based on the TOPMed reference panel 7 , and genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis, we analyzed 12 liver-related blood traits (including liver enzymes, blood lipids, and markers of iron metabolism) in up to 203,476 people from three population-based cohorts of different ancestries. We identified 88 likely causal protein-altering variants that were associated with one or more liver-related blood traits. We identified several loss-of-function (LoF) variants reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or risk of CVD without increased risk of liver disease or diabetes, including variants in known lipid genes (e.g. APOB , LPL ). A novel LoF variant, ZNF529 :p.K405X, was associated with decreased levels of LDL-C (P=1.3×10 −8 ) but demonstrated no association with liver enzymes or non-fasting blood glucose levels. Silencing of ZNF529 in human hepatocytes resulted in upregulation of LDL receptor (LDLR) and increased LDL-C uptake in the cells, suggesting that inhibition of ZNF529 or its gene product could be used for treating hypercholesterolemia and hence reduce the risk of CVD. Taken together, we demonstrate that simultaneous consideration of multiple phenotypes and a focus on rare protein-altering variants may identify promising therapeutic targets." @default.
