Genome-wide association study of toxic metals and trace elements reveals novel associations.

Human molecular genetics - 15 Aug 2015

Ng Esther, Lind P Monica, Lindgren Cecilia, Ingelsson Erik, Mahajan Anubha, Morris Andrew, Lind Lars

Abstract excerpt

The accumulation of toxic metals in the human body is influenced by exposure and mechanisms involved in metabolism, some of which may be under genetic control. This is the first genome-wide association study to investigate variants associated with whole blood levels of a range of toxic metals. Eleven toxic metals and trace elements (aluminium, cadmium, cobalt, copper, chromium, mercury, manganese, molybdenum,...
