Assessing the impact of alcohol consumption on the genetic contribution to mean corpuscular volume.

Human molecular genetics - 13 Oct 2021

Thompson Andrew, King Katharine, Morris Andrew P, Pirmohamed Munir

Abstract excerpt

The relationship between the genetic loci that influence mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and those associated with excess alcohol drinking is unknown. We used white British participants from the UK Biobank (n = 362 595) to assess the association between alcohol consumption and MCV, and whether this was modulated by genetic factors. Multivariable regression was applied to identify predictors of MCV. GWAS, with and...
