Proteo-genomic analyses in relatively lean Chinese adults identify proteins and pathways that affect general and central adiposity levels
15 Oct 2024
Abstract excerpt
Adiposity is an established risk factor for multiple diseases, but the causal relationships of different adiposity types with circulating protein biomarkers have not been systematically investigated. We examine the causal associations of general and central adiposity with 2923 plasma proteins among 3977 Chinese adults (mean BMI = 23.9 kg/m²). Genetically-predicted body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BF%),...
