Genetic Modifiers of ABCA1 Activity Interact with APOE Isoforms to Mediate Alzheimer's Disease Risk

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective ATP‐binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) has been associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the mechanisms by which it impacts disease risk are unknown. ABCA1 is known to bind apolipoprotein E (ApoE) and catalyze apolipoprotein lipidation.

From Interferon Signature to the Clinical Landscape: Type I Interferonopathies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective TypeI interferonopathies are heterogeneous diseases driven by dysregulated type I interferon (IFN‐I) signaling. Diagnosis is challenging due to clinical/molecular variability and the need for IFN‐I quantification. The aim of this study was to characterize the clinical, immunologic, genetic, molecular profiles of patients with suspected ...

Introduction to Mendelian randomization

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical Epidemiology
Mendelian randomization (MR), i.e. instrumental variable analysis using genetic instruments, is an approach that incorporates population genetics to improve causal inference. Given that genetics are randomly allocated at conception, this resembles the randomization process in randomized controlled trials and hence is more resistant to unobserved ...

Increased Plasma Microbial tDR‐1 in At‐Risk Individuals Is Associated With Decreased Conversion to Clinical Rheumatoid Arthritis and Reduces an In Vitro Macrophage Type 1 Interferon Response

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Microbial small RNAs can regulate human genes. Higher plasma concentrations of microbial transfer RNA (tRNA)‐derived RNA‐1 (tDR‐1) were previously associated with lower rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. This study examined whether tDR‐1 concentrations differ in anticyclic citrullinated peptide‐3 positive (CCP3+) at‐risk individuals (

Monitoring pharmacodynamic and molecular drug targets in liquid biopsy: Exploratory study in liver cancer with modelling of EGFR Receptor engagement

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Liquid biopsy is minimally invasive (compared with tissue biopsy) and has previously been used to generate systems data regarding drug elimination via hepatic enzymes and transporters. This study extends quantitative assessment of systems parameters in liquid biopsy to pharmacodynamic (PD) and disease markers relevant to cancer development

Cardiovascular and neuropsychiatric outcomes with PCSK9 inhibitors in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Study design and main findings. After 1:1 propensity score matching, 60 885 PCSK9 inhibitor users and 60 885 statin‐only users with ASCVD were compared. Kaplan–Meier curves show 12‐month cumulative event‐free survival for MACE, psychiatric disease, and neurodegenerative disease.

Moving Mendelian Randomization From Traditional Risk Factors to Molecular Targets for Drug Development and Clinical Trials in Nephrology

open access: yesKidney International Reports
Mendelian randomization leverages the random assortment of alleles at conception to investigate how genetically mediated changes in an exposure affect an outcome while minimizing concerns related to reverse causation and unmeasured confounding. Initially

Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

Associations of 35 Serum and Urine Biomarkers With Vascular Dementia—A Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesBrain and Behavior
Background The relationship between serum and urine biomarkers with vascular dementia (VD) has been increasingly highlighted by observational studies. Yet, the causal nature underlying these associations remains elusive.
