Mendelian randomization of circulating proteome identifies actionable targets in heart failure

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Heart failure (HF) is a prevalent cause of mortality and morbidity. The molecular drivers of HF are still largely unknown. RESULTS: We aimed to identify circulating proteins causally associated with HF by leveraging genome-wide genetic association data for HF including 47,309 cases and 930,014 controls. We performed two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) with multiple cis instruments as well as...
