Phenotypic variance heterogeneity across genotypes at a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) may reflect underlying gene-environment (G×E) or gene-gene interactions. We modeled variance heterogeneity for blood lipids and BMI in up to 44,211 participants and investigated relationships between variance effects (P$_v$), G×E interaction effects (with smoking and physical activity), and marginal genetic effects (P$_m$). Correlations between P$_v$ and P$_m$ were stronger for SNPs with established marginal effects (Spearman's ρ = 0.401 for triglycerides, and ρ = 0.236 for BMI) compared to all SNPs. When P$_v$ and P$_m$ were compared for all pruned SNPs, only BMI was statistically significant (Spearman's ρ = 0.010). Overall, SNPs with established marginal effects were overrepresented in the nominally significant part of the P$_v$ distribution (P$_{binomial}$ <0.05). SNPs from the top 1% of the P$_m$ distribution for BMI had more significant Pv values (P$_{Mann-Whitney}$ = 1.46×10$^{-5}$), and the odds ratio of SNPs with nominally significant (<0.05) P$_m$ and P$_v$ was 1.33 (95% CI: 1.12, 1.57) for BMI. Moreover, BMI SNPs with nominally significant G×E interaction P-values (P$_{int}$<0.05) were enriched with nominally significant P$_v$ values (P$_{binomial}$ = 8.63×10$^{-9}$ and 8.52×10$^{-7}$ for SNP × smoking and SNP × physical activity, respectively). We conclude that some loci with strong marginal effects may be good candidates for G×E, and variance-based prioritization can be used to identify them. ; This research was undertaken as part of a research program supported by the European Commission (CoG-2015_681742_NASCENT), Swedish Research Council (Distinguished Young Researchers Award in Medicine), Swedish HeartLung Foundation, and the Novo Nordisk Foundation, all grants to PWF.

Epidemiological studies established a higher prevalence of impaired fasting glucose in men and impaired glucose tolerance in women, however, the genetic component underlying this phenomenon is not established. We assess sex-dimorphic (73,089/50,404 women and 67,506/47,806 men) and sex-combined (151,188/105,056 individuals) fasting glucose/fasting insulin genetic effects via genome-wide association study meta-analyses in individuals of European descent without diabetes. Here we report sex dimorphism in allelic effects on fasting insulin at IRS1 and ZNF12 loci, the latter showing higher RNA expression in whole blood in women compared to men. We also observe sex-homogeneous effects on fasting glucose at seven novel loci. Fasting insulin in women shows stronger genetic correlations than in men with waist-to-hip ratio and anorexia nervosa. Furthermore, waist-to-hip ratio is causally related to insulin resistance in women, but not in men. These results position dissection of metabolic and glycemic health sex dimorphism as a steppingstone for understanding differences in genetic effects between women and men in related phenotypes. ; Academy of Finland ; ADA ; Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) ; BHF ; Clinical Translational Science Institute ; Croatian Ministry of Science ; Directorate C - Public Health and Risk Assessment, Health & Consumer Protection ; Dutch Kidney Foundation ; Estonian Research Council ; European Research Council (ERC) ; European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) ; European Union Horizon 2020 ; Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), Germany ; Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation ; German Research Foundation ; Greek General Secretary of Research and Technology ; Icelandic National Bioethics Committee ; IFB Adiposity Diseases ; IngaBritt och Arne Lundberg's Research Foundation ; Italian Ministry of Health ; Knut & Alice Wallenberg foundation ; Kuopio University Hospital from Ministry of Health and Social Affairs ; Affymetrix, Inc ; Lundberg Foundation ; Medical Research Council (MRC) ; Mid-Atlantic Nutrition Obesity Research Center ; Ministry of Education and Culture of Finland ; MRC-GSK pilot programme ; NHLBI ; NIA ; NIH ; Nordic Centre of Excellence on Systems biology in controlled dietary interventions and cohort studies, SYSDIET ; Novo Nordisk Foundation ; NWO/ZonMW ; Spinozapremie ; Rutgers University Cell and DNA Repository ; Stockholm County Council ; Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research ; Swedish Heart-Lung Foundation ; Swedish Research Council ; Swiss National Science Foundation ; TEKES ; Torsten och Ragnar Söderbergs Stiftelser ; Wellcome Trust ; Yrjö Jahnsson Foundation ; Note that the full list of funders and grant numbers is available in the online article and in the PDF in this record
