Mendelian randomization reveals interactions of the blood proteome and immunome in mitral valve prolapse
6 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common heart disorder characterized by an excessive production of proteoglycans and extracellular matrix in mitral valve leaflets. Large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) underlined that MVP is heritable. The molecular underpinnings of the disease remain largely unknown. METHODS: We interrogated cross-modality data totaling more than 500,000 subjects including...
