A Mendelian randomization study of IL6 signaling in cardiovascular diseases, immune-related disorders and longevity
20 Sept 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Growing evidence suggests that inflammation is a significant contributor to different cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Mendelian randomization (MR) was performed to assess the causal inference between plasma soluble IL6 receptor (sIL6R), a negative regulator of IL6 signaling, and different cardiovascular and immune-related disorders.Cis-MR with multiple instrumental variables showed an inverse association...
