ABSTRACT Objective To investigate whether genetic predisposition to pre‐eclampsia (PE), measured by a polygenic risk score (PRS), is associated with incident hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) after delivery in Asian women. Design Prospective population‐based cohort study.

Phosphodiesterase‐5 Inhibition and Alzheimer's Disease Risk: A Mendelian Randomisation Study
Preclinical studies suggest PDE5 inhibitors may improve cognition, but observational evidence on Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk is mixed. We performed a cis‐Mendelian randomisation analysis across four AD genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) datasets and a sex‐stratified analysis using UK Biobank data.

Older participants exhibit lower mtDNA copy number (CN) and a higher rare heteroplasmy burden, while common heteroplasmy burden remains relatively stable. Higher epigenetic age acceleration is associated with lower mtDNA CN and higher rare heteroplasmy burden in 6316 participants.

The Roles of EDA2R in Ageing and Disease
Elevated expression of the ectodysplasin A2 receptor (EDA2R) has been linked to ageing and disease. We appraise the roles of EDA2R in these processes, exploring mechanisms of action, biomarker potential and therapeutic relevance of EDA2R in multiple contexts. ABSTRACT Ageing is a complex biological process driven, in part, by inflammaging.

PCBP2 Regulates p16INK4a‐Dependent Cellular Senescence in Response to Iron
PCBP2 induces cellular senescence by modulating the expression of p16INK4a and CD40 in response to iron. PCBP2 activates p16INK4a via the functional SNP rs1333046 on the atherosclerosis‐associated CDKN2A/B locus. ABSTRACT Recently, we have identified rs1333046 as one of the candidate functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (fSNPs) on the ...
