On Track? Using the Human Genome Epidemiology Roadmap

Abstract: This paper considers the potential value of genomic information, comments on the nature of evidence about this potential value, particularly on genetic association studies, points out the need for a roadmap, outlines steps in a roadmap that was developed within the Human Genome Epidemiology Network (HuGENet), discusses progress with these steps, and comments on future directions.

“…Technological advances in the fields of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics [5,6] make it possible to further specify nutritional intake recommendations by tailoring them to individuals rather than subgroups of a population. A detailed overview of the technological advances and their applications is provided by García-Cañas et al [7].…”

“…It may also potentially provide patient-specific prescribing advice through decision support systems. Finally, genetic epidemiology is rising to new levels with the aggregation of genome-based data alongside public health and environmental registries (eg, such as cataloged in HuGENet19). Collectively, these sub-disciplines of bioinformatics have been suggested as core to the integration of biological and health data 20.…”

“…Before the GWAS era, the literature about the genetics of osteoporosis and fracture had been confined to a very large number of ''genome-wide linkage'' and ''candidate gene association'' studies. In retrospect, and with few exceptions, the majority were small, inadequately-powered studies generating controversial and frequently non-reproducible reports [3] on variants in about 150 candidate gene regions for osteoporosis according to HuGeNet [4]. Even though, a few polymorphisms were indeed identified as being associated with either BMD or fracture (such as for LRP5 [5] associated at P \ 5 9 10 -8 , the current standard for declaring genome-wide significance).…”
