Genetic variants associated with disordered eating
AssociationN=2,564Tracey D. Wade et al.(2013)· International Journal of Eating Disorders

This GWAS examined genetic variants associated with disordered eating in 2,564 female twins using four eating disorder phenotypes (anorexia nervosa spectrum, bulimia nervosa spectrum, purging via substances, and disordered eating behaviors). Six regions reached suggestive significance (p<5×10⁻⁷), implicating CLEC5A, LOC136242, TSHZ1, and SYTL5 for anorexia nervosa spectrum; NT5C1B for bulimia nervosa spectrum; and ATP8A2 for disordered eating behaviors. No variants reached genome-wide significance at p<10⁻⁸.

Genome‐wide association analysis of eating disorder‐related symptoms, behaviors, and personality traits
AssociationN=2,784Vesna Boraska et al.(2012)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics

Genome-wide association study of six eating disorder-related phenotypes (Drive for Thinness, Body Dissatisfaction, Bulimia, Weight Fluctuation, Breakfast Skipping, and Childhood Obsessive-Compulsive traits) across 2,698-2,967 individuals from TwinsUK discovery and two independent European replication cohorts. Meta-analysis identified eight genetic variants with suggestive evidence of association (P < 10^-5), including rs7624327 near CCNL1 (P=3.34E-06, OR=1.13 for Bulimia), rs1898111 in SEMA6D (P=7.66E-06, OR=0.872 for OCPD), and rs6894268 in RUFY1 (P=2.38E-06 for Body Dissatisfaction), but no signals reached genome-wide significance threshold (P < 5×10^-8).

About SEMA6D

Semaphorins are a large family, including both secreted and membrane associated proteins, many of which have been implicated as inhibitors or chemorepellents in axon pathfinding, fasciculation and branching, and target selection. All semaphorins possess a semaphorin (Sema) domain and a PSI domain (found in plexins, semaphorins and integrins) in the N-terminal extracellular portion. Additional sequence motifs C-terminal to the semaphorin domain allow classification into distinct subfamilies. Results demonstrate that transmembrane semaphorins, like the secreted ones, can act as repulsive axon guidance cues. This gene encodes a class 6 vertebrate transmembrane semaphorin that demonstrates alternative splicing. Several transcript variants have been identified and expression of the distinct encoded isoforms is thought to be regulated in a tissue- and development-dependent manner.
