Genetically proxied PCSK9 inhibition provides indication of lower prostate cancer risk: a Mendelian randomization study

2022-04-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the second most prevalent malignancy in men worldwide. Observational studies have linked the use of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) lowering therapies with reduced risk of PrCa, which may potentially be attributable to confounding factors. In this study, we performed a drug target Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to evaluate the association of genetica...
