Gene networks driven by genetic variation for plasma cortisol in hepatic and adipose tissues implicate corticosteroid binding globulin in modulating tissue glucocorticoid action and cardiovascular risk
2023-01-21
Abstract excerpt
Genome wide association meta-analyses (GWAMA) by the CORtisol NETwork (CORNET) consortium identified genetic variants spanning the SERPINA6/ SERPINA1 locus on chromosome 14 associated with morning plasma cortisol, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and SERPINA6 mRNA expression encoding corticosteroid binding globulin (CBG) in liver. These and other findings indicate that higher plasma cortisol levels are causally ass...
