Genome-wide association analyses of risk tolerance and risky behaviors in over 1 million individuals identify hundreds of loci and shared genetic influences.

The coexistence of copy number variations (CNVs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at a locus can result in distorted calculations of the significance in associating SNPs to disease.

Based on conjunctional FDR < 0.05, we identified 2 loci shared between SCZ and ICV implicating genes FOXO3 (rs10457180) and ITIH4 (rs4687658), 2 loci shared between SCZ and hippocampal volume implicating SLC4A10 (rs4664442) and SPATS2L (rs1653290), and 2 loci shared between SCZ and volume of putamen implicating DCC (rs4632195) and DLG2 (rs11233632).
We found one SNP, rs2270954, to be nominally associated with schizophrenia; patients were less likely to be heterozygous at this locus and more likely to be homozygous for the minor allele (χ(2)=9.84, df=2, nominal p=0.0071).
There was no evidence for association of DCC nt 601 C --> G with autoimmune disease in cohorts comprising 2253 subjects with rheumatoid arthritis, type I diabetes and Graves' disease, and 2225 control subjects, from New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
Also, one SNP allele (rs4940177) that created a CpG in a CpG island associated with the DCC tumor suppressor gene, was more common in the cancer datasets (p < 0.0007).
We identified 4 new promising loci for bortezomib-induced PNP at 4q34.3 (rs6552496), 5q14.1 (rs12521798), 16q23.3 (rs8060632), and 18q21.2 (rs17748074).

The DCC rs17468382 and EPHB1 rs2030737 SNPs may be associated with increased PD risk, and the CHP rs6492998 and RRAS2 rs2970332 SNPs may be associated with reduced PD risk.
