Investigating pleiotropy between depression and autoimmune diseases using the UK Biobank

2020-12-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Epidemiological studies have shown increased comorbidity between depression and autoimmune diseases. The mechanisms driving the comorbidity are poorly understood, and a highly powered investigation is needed to understand the relative importance of shared genetic influences. We investigated the evidence for pleiotropy from shared genetic risk alleles between these traits in the UK Biobank (UKB)...
