Novel Drug Targets for Ischemic Stroke Identified Through Mendelian Randomization Analysis of the Blood Proteome
18 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
Background: Novel, effective, and safe drugs are warranted for treatment of ischemic stroke. Circulating protein biomarkers with causal genetic evidence represent promising drug targets, but no systematic screen of the proteome has been performed. Methods: First, using Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses, we assessed 653 circulating proteins as possible causal mediators for 3 different subtypes of ischemic...
