    • Multiple myeloma (MM) is caused by the uncontrolled, clonal expansion of plasma cells. While there is epidemiological evidence for inherited susceptibility, the molecular basis remains incompletely understood. We report a genome-wide association study totalling 5,320 cases and 422,289 controls from four Nordic populations, and find a novel MM risk variant at SOHLH2 at 13q13.3 (risk allele frequency = 3.5%; odds ratio = 1.38; P = 2.2 × 10-14). This gene encodes a transcription factor involved in gametogenesis that is normally only weakly expressed in plasma cells. The association is represented by 14 variants in linkage disequilibrium. Among these, rs75712673 maps to a genomic region with open chromatin in plasma cells, and upregulates SOHLH2 in this cell type. Moreover, rs75712673 influences transcriptional activity in luciferase assays, and shows a chromatin looping interaction with the SOHLH2 promoter. Our work provides novel insight into MM susceptibility.

  • Search for AL amyloidosis risk factors using Mendelian randomization

    • In amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis, amyloid fibrils derived from immunoglobulin light chain are deposited in many organs, interfering with their function. The etiology of AL amyloidosis is poorly understood. Summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of multiple phenotypes can be exploited by Mendelian randomization (MR) methodology to search for factors influencingALamyloidosis risk.Weperformed a 2-sample MR analyzing 72 phenotypes, proxied by 3461 genetic variants, and summary genetic data from a GWAS of 1129 AL amyloidosis cases and 7589 controls. Associations with a Bonferroni-defined significance level were observed for genetically predicted increased monocyte counts (P = 3.8 × 10-4) and the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17 (TNFRSF17) gene (P = 3.4 × 10-5). Two other associations with the TNFRSF (members 6 and 19L) reached a nominal significance level. The association between genetically predicted decreased fibrinogen levels may be related to roles of fibrinogen other than blood clotting. be related to its nonhemostatic role. It is plausible that a causal relationship with monocyte concentration could be explained by selection of a light chain-producing clone during progression of monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance toward AL amyloidosis. Because TNFRSF proteins have key functions in lymphocyte biology, it is entirely plausible that they offer a potential link to AL amyloidosis pathophysiology. Our study provides insight into AL amyloidosis etiology, suggesting high circulating levels of monocytes and TNFRSF proteins as risk factors.
