Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Inflammation and keratoconus: A comprehensive bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis

Medicine
An increasing body of evidence supports the involvement of inflammation and immune responses in the occurrence and development of keratoconus (KC). However, the causal relationship between inflammatory factors and KC remains unclear. We employed a 2-way Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to investigate the interaction between KC and inflammatory ...

A two‐sample Mendelian randomization study and mediation analysis exploring the link between cathepsins and epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the causal relationship between cathepsins and epilepsy, using Mendelian randomization (MR) and mediation analysis. Methods Publicly accessible summary statistics on epilepsy were obtained from FinnGen and the International League Against Epilepsy Consortium.

Genetically predicted ankylosing spondylitis increases the risk of heart failure: a Mendelian randomization study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundObservational studies have indicated a potential association between ankylosing spondylitis and elevated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, it remains uncertain whether this association reflects a causal association.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Mendelian randomization analysis of female reproductive factors on osteoarthritis

Medicine
Epidemiology shows women have a higher incidence of osteoarthritis (OA) than men. However, there is not enough evidence to suggest a direct correlation between female reproductive factors and OA. Therefore, this study will employ Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate whether there is a causal relationship between the 2. This study used a

Multi‐Cohort Analysis Reveals Genetic Predispositions to Clonal Hematopoiesis as Mutation‐Specific Risk Factors for Stroke

Advanced Genetics, Volume 6, Issue 1, March 2025.
This study comprehensively evaluated the differential effect of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) mutations on the risk of various stroke subtypes and functional recovery. It shows that TET2 is associated with small vessel stroke possibly via a pro‐inflammatory pathway. Abstract Recent observational studies have found an association between Clonal Hematopoesis

Causal and mediating effects of lipid and facial aging: association study integrating GWAS, eQTL, mQTL, and pQTL data

Lipids in Health and Disease
Background Increasing evidence suggests a potential causal association between lipid levels and facial aging. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between levels of specific lipids and facial aging via Mendelian randomization methods.

Proteome‐Wide Mendelian Randomization Identifies Therapeutic Targets for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background The proteome is a key source of therapeutic targets. We conducted a comprehensive Mendelian randomization analysis across the proteome to identify potential protein markers and therapeutic targets for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).
