Japanese GWAS identifies variants for bust-size, dysmenorrhea, and menstrual fever that are eQTLs for relevant protein-coding or long non-coding RNAs
Scientific reports ·doi:10.1038/s41598-018-25065-9

Traits related to primary and secondary sexual characteristics greatly impact females during puberty and day-to-day adult life. Therefore, we performed a GWAS analysis of 11,348 Japanese female volunteers and 22 gynecology-related phenotypi…

Genome wide association study of age at menarche in the Japanese population.
PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0063821

Age at menarche (AAM) is a complex trait involving both genetic and environmental factors. To identify the genetic factors associated with AAM, we conducted a large-scale meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies using more than 15,0…

Impact of PSCA variation on gastric ulcer susceptibility.
PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0063698

Peptic ulcer is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders with complex etiology. Recently we conducted the genome wide association study for duodenal ulcer and identified disease susceptibility variations at two genetic loci corresp…

A genome-wide association study identifies genetic variants in the CDKN2BAS locus associated with endometriosis in Japanese
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/ng.612

Although the pathogenesis of endometriosis is not well understood, genetic factors have been considered to have critical roles in its etiology. Through a genome-wide association study and a replication study using a total of 1,907 Japanese …
