Exploring the Causal Pathway From Telomere Length to Alzheimer’s Disease: An Update Mendelian Randomization Study

Abstract excerpt

Increasing evidence shows that telomere length shortening is associated with the risk for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), pointing to a potential modifiable target for prevention. However, the causality of this association is still not clear. To investigate the causal relationship between telomere length and AD, we use two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) to assessing potential causal inference. We used...
