Abstract
HapMap imputed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revealed >50 loci at which common variants with minor allele frequency >5% are associated with kidney function. GWAS using more complete reference sets for imputation, such as those from The 1000 Genomes project, promise to identify novel loci that have been missed by previous efforts. To investigate the value of such a more complete variant catalog, we conducted a GWAS meta-analysis of kidney function based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in 110,517 European ancestry participants using 1000 Genomes imputed data. We identified 10 novel loci with p-value < 5 × 10−8 previously missed by HapMap-based GWAS. Six of these loci (

GWAS using more complete reference sets for imputation, such as those from The 1000 Genomes project, promise to identify novel loci that have been missed by previous efforts. To investigate the value of such a more complete variant catalog, we conducted a GWAS meta-analysis of kidney function based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in 110,517 European ancestry participants using 1000 Genomes imputed data. We identified 10 novel loci with p-value < 5 × 10<sup>−8</sup> previously missed by HapMap-based GWAS. Six of these loci (<italic>HOXD8</italic>, <italic>ARL15</italic>, <italic>PIK3R1</italic>, <italic>EYA4</italic>, <italic>ASTN2</italic>, and <italic>EPB41L3</italic>) are tagged by common SNPs unique to the 1000 Genomes reference panel. Using pathway analysis, we identified 39 significant (FDR < 0.05) genes and 127 significantly (FDR < 0.05) enriched gene sets, which were missed by our previous analyses. Among those, the 10 identified novel genes are part of pathways of kidney development, carbohydrate metabolism, cardiac septum development and glucose metabolism. These results highlight the utility of re-imputing from denser reference panels, until whole-genome sequencing becomes feasible in large samples.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Eckardt, K U" uniqKey="Eckardt K">K.

GWAS using more complete reference sets for imputation, such as those from The 1000 Genomes project, promise to identify novel loci that have been missed by previous efforts. To investigate the value of such a more complete variant catalog, we conducted a GWAS meta-analysis of kidney function based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in 110,517 European ancestry participants using 1000 Genomes imputed data. We identified 10 novel loci with p-value < 5 × 10<sup>−8</sup> previously missed by HapMap-based GWAS. Six of these loci (<italic>HOXD8</italic>, <italic>ARL15</italic>, <italic>PIK3R1</italic>, <italic>EYA4</italic>, <italic>ASTN2</italic>, and <italic>EPB41L3</italic>) are tagged by common SNPs unique to the 1000 Genomes reference panel. Using pathway analysis, we identified 39 significant (FDR < 0.05) genes and 127 significantly (FDR < 0.05) enriched gene sets, which were missed by our previous analyses. Among those, the 10 identified novel genes are part of pathways of kidney development, carbohydrate metabolism, cardiac septum development and glucose metabolism. These results highlight the utility of re-imputing from denser reference panels, until whole-genome sequencing becomes feasible in large samples.</p></abstract></article-meta></front><body><p>Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health concern affecting ~10% of the global adult population<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1">1</xref>.

Among the 39 lead variants in previously published loci that were genome-wide significant in the 1000 Genomes meta-analysis, 6 lead variants were found to be the same as the previously published variants, 25 were highly correlated (r<sup>2</sup> > 0.6), and 8 showed moderate or no correlation (r<sup>2</sup> ≤ 0.6).</p><p>The 1000 Genomes meta-analysis of eGFRcys confirmed previously identified loci in or near <italic>CST3/CST9</italic> (p-value = 4.1 × 10<sup>−153</sup>), <italic>UMOD</italic> (p-value = 2.9 × 10<sup>−10</sup>), and <italic>ATXN2</italic> (p-value = 1.6 × 10<sup>−8</sup>), but did not reveal any novel signal.</p></sec><sec disp-level="2"><title>The ten novel eGFRcrea loci in the context of the different reference panels</title><p>For six of the ten novel loci (<italic>HOXD8</italic>, <italic>ARL15</italic>, <italic>PIK3R1</italic>, <italic>EYA4</italic>, <italic>ASTN2</italic>, and <italic>EPB41L3</italic>), the lead variant identified in the 1000 Genomes meta-analysis was not observed in any previous HapMap meta-analysis and in fact was not genotyped as part of the HapMap reference panel.

No substantial between-study heterogeneity was observed (I<sup>2</sup> = 19%, 0%, or 21%, respectively, <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="S1">Supplementary Table 9</xref>). Since the p-values in the HapMap analysis were just short of genome-wide significance (p-values 8.38 × 10<sup>−6</sup> to 2.33 × 10<sup>−7</sup>; type II error of 14–29%), it is conceivable that these variants have been missed previously by chance.</p></sec><sec disp-level="2"><title>Pathway analyses</title><p>Data-driven Expression Prioritized Integration for complex Traits (DEPICT)<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b21">21</xref> analysis of eGFRcrea identified 39 significant (FDR < 0.05) genes and 127 significantly (FDR < 0.05) enriched gene sets that were not identified previously<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7">7</xref>.

All 127 significant gene sets were further grouped into meta gene sets, corresponding to their correlation of gene expression. The two most significant meta gene sets were Cardiac Septum Development (p-value = 4.48 * 10<sup>−5</sup>) and Glucose Metabolism (p-value = 6.11 * 10<sup>−5</sup>), containing one of the 10 novel index genes (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="S1">Supplementary Figure 2</xref>). We repeated the analysis with varying parameters (50, 200, and 500 repetitions and 500, 2000, and 5000 permutations, respectively), confirming our primary top gene sets at an FDR of <0.05. P-values ranged from 1.32 × 10<sup>−3</sup> to 4.48 × 10<sup>−5</sup> and from 8.27 × 10<sup>−4</sup> to 4.98 × 10<sup>−5</sup> for Cardiac Septum Development and Glucose Metabolism, respectively. We replicated also the strong influence of embryonic development, kidney transmembrane transporter activity, and kidney and urogenital system morphology in the genesis of CKD from our previous findings<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7">7</xref>: enrichment of all 148 previously identified gene sets was nominally significant (p-value < 0.05).</p></sec><sec disp-level="2"><title>Independent association signals at novel and known loci</title><p>To identify independent association signals within a known or novel locus, we performed joint conditional analysis of eGFRcrea based on aggregated study-specific statistics using the GCTA software<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b22">22</xref>.

Using genotype imputation based on The 1000 Genomes panel led to the identification of 10 novel genome-wide significant loci for kidney function that were missed by earlier HapMap-imputed GWAS of larger sample size, partly due to the enhanced coverage of genomic variation. This phenomenon was observed in similar analyses of other phenotypes<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b29">29</xref>. Still, it needs to be acknowledged that the additional proportion of trait variance explained by these new loci is moderate, which is also in line with findings from GWAS of other phenotypes<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b30">30</xref>.</p><p>There are several methodological insights that can be gained from our analyses. First, this 1000 Genomes-based meta-analysis of 110,517 individuals has identified 10 novel loci and 8 independent association signals in known loci that were missed by our latest HapMap based analysis<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7">7</xref>. Our detailed dissection shows that 1000 Genomes imputation (i) provides variants missed or poorly tagged by HapMap based analysis and (ii) achieves a higher effective sample size through increased imputation quality.</p><p>Second, although the 1000 Genomes imputation enables the analysis of low-frequency variants, insertions and deletions, all identified top variants were SNPs, and all but one (near <italic>HOXD8</italic>) were common. Moreover, we did not identify any low-frequency variant of large effect. Our results are highly concordant with those of other recent complex diseases studies<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b31">31</xref> showing that low-frequency variants are also contributing to complex disease risk, but that most observed effect sizes are small or modest, and hundreds of thousands of subjects are required for detection. To identify the contribution of rare variants (MAF < 1%) to eGFRcrea, large-scale sequencing data in addition to genomic chip data have been shown to be a promising approach<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b31">31</xref>.</p><p>Third, these novel loci, missed by our previous analysis<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7">7</xref>, extend our knowledge of pathways underlying kidney function, which depicts the influence of kidney development, kidney structure, and metabolic activity on the development of CKD.</p><p>The comparison of our 1000 Genomes meta-analysis with our previous HapMap meta-analysis is limited by several factors: the current analysis consists of a reduced number of samples and a slightly different study composition. Furthermore, different 1000 Genomes reference panels were used to impute genotypes and advances in imputation software and methodology must be acknowledged<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b32">32</xref><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b33">33</xref>. Nevertheless, six of the ten lead variants in the novel loci are only covered by The 1000 Genomes reference panels, which demonstrates the advantage of meta-analyses on 1000 Genomes over HapMap imputed genotypes.</p><p>In conclusion, we identified 10 novel loci and 8 additional independent association variants within known loci associated with kidney function and identified 127 novel pathways for kidney function. These results highlight the utility of re-imputing studies from improved reference panels as an intermediate cost-efficient approach to scan the full allelic frequency range for kidney function associated variants, until whole genome sequencing is feasible in large samples.</p></sec><sec disp-level="1"><title>Methods</title><sec disp-level="2"><title>Phenotype definition</title><p>Each study measured serum creatinine as described in <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="S1">Supplementary Table 1</xref>.

DEPICT performs gene set enrichment analyses by testing whether genes in GWAS-associated loci are enriched for reconstituted versions of known molecular pathways (jointly referred to as reconstituted gene sets). The reconstitution is accomplished by identifying genes that are co-regulated with other genes in a given gene set based on a panel of 77,840 gene expression microarrays<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b44">44</xref>. Genes that are found to be transcriptionally co-regulated with genes from the original gene set are added to the gene set, which results in the reconstitution. Several types of gene sets were reconstituted in DEPICT: 5,984 protein molecular pathways derived from 169,810 high-confidence experimentally derived protein-protein interactions<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b45">45</xref>, 2,473 phenotypic gene sets derived from 211,882 gene-phenotype pairs from the Mouse Genetics Initiative<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b46">46</xref>, 737 Reactome database pathways<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b47">47</xref>, 184 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database pathways<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b48">48</xref> and 5,083 Gene Ontology database terms<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b49">49</xref>. In total, 14,461 gene sets were assessed for enrichment in genes in associated regions. DEPICT also facilitates tissue and cell type enrichment analyses by testing whether the genes in associated regions are highly expressed in any of the 209 MeSH annotations for 37,427 microarrays on the Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 Array platform.</p><p>In our analysis, we used DEPICT version 1 rel194 and to be comparable to our previous analysis, included all variants reaching eGFRcrea association p-values < 1 × 10<sup>−5</sup> from HapMap and 1000 Genomes imputed data with genomic coordinates defined by genome build GRCh38 (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgLiftOver">https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgLiftOver</ext-link>). Since 1000 Genomes imputed loci in the DEPICT analysis differed slightly from the HapMap imputed loci, our HapMap and 1000 Genomes input was created by adding all significant 1000 Genomes variants to all significant HapMap variants. This process resulted in a total of 3,659 variants for HapMap, 7,894 variants for 1000 Genomes, and 9,270 variants for HapMap and 1000 Genomes analyses. Next, independent lead variants were identified with Plink<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b50">50</xref> using ± 500 kb flanking regions and r<sup>2</sup> > 0.01 with the 1000 Genomes data<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b14">14</xref> as reference. Genomic intervals are generated consisting of all variants within r<sup>2</sup> > 0.5 to each lead variant.
