Diabetes and Risk of Arterial Stiffness: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis [PDF]

Diabetes, 2016
We aimed to explore the causal association between type 2 diabetes (T2D) and increased arterial stiffness. We performed a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis in 11,385 participants from a well-defined community study in Shanghai during 2011–2013. We genotyped 34 T2D-associated common variants identified in East Asians and created a genetic risk score

A Hepatocyte‐to‐Stellate Cell Axis Couples Alternate‐Day Fasting to Liver Fibrosis Resolution via ATG7 S‐Nitrosylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Alternate‐day fasting suppresses mitochondrial complex II assembly via SDHAF4 to upregulate hepatocyte eNOS. The resulting nitric oxide S‐nitrosylates ATG7 at C184 in hepatic stellate cells, restraining autophagic flux and preventing their profibrotic activation.

Metabolic Signatures for Liver Cancer Diagnosis and Mechanistic Insights: A Large‐Scale, Multicenter Study

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A large‐scale multicenter serum metabolomics study (13 centers, n = 2,149) identified a 9‐metabolite + AFP diagnostic signature for liver cancer (AUC = 0.93). Among the signature, nicotinamide (NAM) was validated as an oncometabolite: NAM enhances NAD+ synthesis, activating SIRT1 to deacetylate and stabilize HIF1α, thereby driving glycolysis, MAPK ...

Leukemia and risk of stroke: a Mendelian randomization analysis

BMC Neurology
Observational studies suggest an association between leukemia and stroke, but causality remains unclear. Certain leukemia types may increase stroke risk, but variations exist in stroke and mortality rates across leukemia subtypes. This study employed Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate links between leukemia subtypes and stroke.We conducted a ...

CausalCellInfer: Prioritizing Cell‐Type‐Specific Disease Associations From Genetically Predicted Transcriptomes in Biobank Cohorts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bulk and genotype‐imputed transcriptomes obscure the cellular drivers of complex disease. CausalCellInfer resolves them by integrating invariant marker selection, deep learning deconvolution, and regularized matrix completion. Applied to ∼500 000 UK Biobank participants across 29 traits, it uncovers hallmark cell‐type proportion shifts, including ...

Structural Variants in the Human Genome Associated With Gut Microbiome and Blood Metabolic Traits With Potential Causal Links

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on a multi‐omics cohort of 2002 individuals comprising high‐depth whole‐genome and metagenomic sequencing data, blood metabolites, and detailed questionnaires, we identified 138 859 high‐confidence SVs, uncovering 36 significant SV–microbiome associations and 48 SV–blood metabolite associations.

Mendelian randomization analyses explore the relationship between cathepsins and lung cancer

Communications Biology, 2023
Lung cancer, a major contributor to cancer-related fatalities worldwide, involves a complex pathogenesis. Cathepsins, lysosomal cysteine proteases, play roles in various physiological and pathological processes, including tumorigenesis.

Early‐Life Polyethylene Microplastic Exposure Exacerbates ADHD‐Like Behaviors in Mice via PI3K/AKT1/Nrf2 Signaling: Evidence From the Pilot Cohort and Multi‐Omics Analyses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Circulating polyethylene microplastic burden is positively associated with heightened ADHD symptom severity and systemic redox‐inflammatory imbalance in children. Mechanistic investigation in a developmental co‐exposure mouse model further demonstrates that microplastics aggravate ADHD‐like behaviors, dopaminergic dysregulation, and oxidative ...
