A major adverse effect of statins is myopathy (known since 1980). Now genetics have shed light on this association. Two independent teams have recently discovered that recessive mutations in HMGCR cause a severe form of muscular disease in humans. A 🧵 for genetics lovers.

Our large-scale bulk transcriptome study of SLE is now online at @CellCellPress! Undoubtedly, scRNA-seq will be the mainstream of transcriptomics from now on, but it is important to recognize its current limitation. Bulk studies still have the potential to reveal new biology!

Glad our paper is highlighted by IGES @genepisociety. Thanks to collaborators @Eric_Fauman @klmohlke and many others not on twitter

The IGES paper highlight for March 2022 is by Yin et al. They report 303 new genetic associations with 1391 circulating metabolites in 6136 Finnish men. They demonstrate that metabolite genetic associations can help elucidate disease mechanisms nature.com/articles/s4146…

Thrilled to share our work with Michael Boehnke, Markku Laakso, Eric Fauman @Eric_Fauman, and many others on metabolomics genetics in METSIM study. More on Eric’s thread.

Great work from @XianyongYin, Markku Laakso, Michael Boehnke and many others. "Genome-wide association study of 1,391 plasma metabolites in 6,136 Finnish men identifies 303 novel signals and provides biological insights into human diseases"
