Genetic Associations of Lipid-Lowering Drugs and Parkinson’s Disease: A Mendelian Randomization Study

2024-01-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> There is a need to establish the role of lipid-lowering agents as a therapeutic option for Parkinson’s Disease (PD), but its associations remain elusive. This study investigated genetic variants proxying lipid-lowering agents through HMGCR, NPC1L1, and PCSK9 inhibitors to determine casual associations with PD risk. <h4>Methods</h4> We utilized a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) framework...
