Abstrakt: Individuals suffering from chronic pain develop substance use disorders (SUDs) more often than others. Understanding the shared genetic influences underlying the comorbidity between chronic pain and SUDs will lead to a greater understanding of their biology. Genome-wide association statistics were obtained from the UK Biobank for multisite chronic pain (MCP, N effective  = 387,649) and from the Million Veteran Program and the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium meta-analyses for alcohol use disorder (AUD, N effective  = 296,974), cannabis use disorder (CanUD, N effective  = 161,053), opioid use disorder (OUD, N effective  = 57,120), and problematic tobacco use (PTU, N effective  = 270,120). SNP-based heritability was estimated for each of the traits and genetic correlation (r g ) analyses were performed to assess MCP-SUD pleiotropy. Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization analyses evaluated possible causal relationships. Finally, to identify and characterize individual loci, we performed a genome-wide pleiotropy analysis and a brain-wide analysis using imaging phenotypes available from the UK Biobank. MCP was positively genetically correlated with AUD (r g  = 0.26, p = 7.55 × 10 -18 ), CanUD (r g  = 0.37, p = 8.21 × 10 -37 ), OUD (r g  = 0.20, p = 1.50 × 10 -3 ), and PTU (r g  = 0.29, p = 8.53 × 10 -12 ). Although the MR analyses supported bi-directional relationships, MCP had larger effects on AUD (pain-exposure: beta = 0.18, p = 8.21 × 10 -4 ; pain-outcome: beta = 0.07, p = 0.018), CanUD (pain-exposure: beta = 0.58, p = 2.70 × 10 -6 ; pain-outcome: beta = 0.05, p = 0.014) and PTU (pain-exposure: beta = 0.43, p = 4.16 × 10 -8 ; pain-outcome: beta = 0.09, p = 3.05 × 10 -6 ) than the reverse. The genome-wide analysis identified two SNPs pleiotropic between MCP and all SUD investigated: IHO1 rs7652746 (p pleiotropy  = 2.69 × 10 -8 ), and CADM2 rs1248857 (p pleiotropy  = 1.98 × 10 -5 ). In the brain-wide analysis, rs7652746 was associated with multiple cerebellum and amygdala imaging phenotypes. When analyzing MCP pleiotropy with each SUD separately, we found 25, 22, and 4 pleiotropic variants for AUD, CanUD, and OUD, respectively. To our knowledge, this is the first large-scale study to provide evidence of potential causal relationships and shared genetic mechanisms underlying MCP-SUD comorbidity.
