Abstract excerpt
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a lethal lung disease for which there are no reliable biomarkers or disease-modifying drugs. Here, we integrated human genomics and proteomics to investigate the causal associations between 2769 plasma proteins and IPF. Our Mendelian randomisation analysis identified nine proteins associated with IPF, of which three (FUT3, ADAM15 and USP28) were colocalised. ADAM15 emerged...
