Additional highly significant hits that are not directly involved in the growth hormone–IGF pathway include the liver transcription factor HNF1A (also associated with urate [ Tin et al., 2019 ]); variants near two genes–GCKR and KLF14–that are involved in many biomarkers, although to our knowledge the mechanism is unclear; and variants at two additional genes CENPW and ZNF644.
