Discovery of Novel Trans-Ancestry and Ancestry-Specific Gene Loci for Total Testosterone in a Multi-Ancestral Analysis of Men in the Million Veteran Program

2022-02-17

Abstract excerpt

Utilizing data from the Million Veteran Program (MVP), we investigated the genetic determinants underlying total testosterone levels via a multi-ancestral analysis of 124,593 individuals of European (n=88,385), African (n=25,235) and Hispanic (n=10,973) ancestry. We identified 46 trans-ancestry variants and 17 ancestry-specific variants, of which 14 trans-ancestry variants and 15 ancestry-specific variants are nov...
