Sonic hedgehog signaling regulates processes of embryonic development across multiple tissues, yet factors regulating context-specific Shh signaling remain poorly understood. Exome sequencing of families with polymicrogyria (disordered cortical folding) revealed multiple individuals with biallelic deleterious variants in TMEM161B , which encodes a multi-pass transmembrane protein of unknown function. Tmem161b null mice demonstrated holoprosencephaly, craniofacial midline defects, eye defects, and spinal cord patterning changes consistent with impaired Shh signaling, but were without limb defects, suggesting a CNS-specific role of Tmem161b. Tmem161b depletion impaired the response to Smoothened activation in vitro and disrupted cortical histogenesis in vivo in both mouse and ferret models, including leading to abnormal gyration in the ferret model. Tmem161b localizes non-exclusively to the primary cilium, and scanning electron microscopy revealed shortened, dysmorphic, and ballooned ventricular zone cilia in the Tmem161b null mouse, suggesting that the Shh-related phenotypes may reflect ciliary dysfunction. Our data identify TMEM161B as a regulator of cerebral cortical gyration, as involved in primary ciliary structure, as a regulator of Shh signaling, and further implicate Shh signaling in human gyral development.

Several loci have been discovered and replicated for urine albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR), a measure of kidney function, in European populations; however, other ethnic populations such as African-Americans have been less studied for this trait. We examined the association of genetic variants on the Metabochip with natural log transformed ACR (ln(ACR)) in 4,629 African-Americans from the Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE) Study which includes participants from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC), Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS), Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA), and Epidemiologic Architecture for Genes Linked to the Environment (EAGLE-BioVU) studies. We then replicated our findings in 1,533 African-American participants from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). Linear regression models were used to examine associations, assuming additive effects of the SNPs. Within each study, models were adjusted for age, field center (where applicable), and principal components of ancestry, and stratified by sex. Fixed effects inverse variance weighted meta-analysis was used to combine results from contributing studies. Array-wide statistical significance was concluded for SNP associations of p-value less than 2.8 x 10-7. Mean ln(ACR) ranged from 1.4 to 2.9 mg/g, average age ranged from 44 to 77 years, and percent female participants ranged from 59-65% in the contributing studies. Four SNPs were significantly associated array-wide with ACR in the discovery sample: rs17399841 in GRHL2 (β=-0.67, MAF=0.01, p=2.7x10-9), rs153914 near SPATA9/RHOBTB3 (β=-0.59, MAF=0.01, p=1.0x10-7), rs17439845 in LEF1 (β=-0.49, MAF=0.02, p=1.3x10-7), and rs11836243 near ZNF641/ANP32D (β=0.23, MAF=0.12, p=1.8x10-7). Of these four loci, only the association of rs17439845 with ACR replicated in MESA (β=-0.36, p=0.038), with a combined discovery-replication beta of -0.46 and p value of 1.8x10-8. Combined discovery-replication for rs17399841, rs153914, and rs11836243 no longer achieved array-wide significance (p-values 9.84x10-7, 1.98x10-5, and 1.32x10-4, respectively). LEF1 is a mediator in the Wnt signaling pathway, and has been previously implicated in systemic lupus erythematosus and osteoporosis, as well as previously associated with waist circumference, echocardiographic traits, bone mineral density, and blood count traits. Continuing studies in diverse populations are warranted to identify a set of loci important in contributing to the variation in ACR.
