Evaluating lipid-lowering drug targets for Parkinson disease prevention with Mendelian randomization

2020-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> To examine whether long-term exposure to statins and other lipid-lowering drugs may affect PD risk – either beneficially or adversely – using Mendelian randomization (MR). <h4>Methods</h4> MR analyses were based on variants in genes encoding the targets of several approved or emerging drug classes that reduce circulating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or triglycerides. Variants were...
