Mendelian Randomization Study Suggests Circulating Copper Level as a Risk Factor for Liver Cirrhosis
2023-03-28
Abstract excerpt
Cirrhosis is a serious liver disease with an unclear etiology and pathogenesis. Previous studies suggest a correlation between circulating copper and cirrhosis. However, whether circulating copper is a risk factor for cirrhosis is currently controversial because the liver is a major organ of copper metabolism and cirrhosis affects copper circulation. To address this, we used a mendelian randomization to explore th...
