Metabolites mediate genetic effects on disease in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging
2025-11-14
Abstract excerpt
Understanding the biological mechanisms linking genetic variants to disease risk is essential for advancing precision health. We have developed a causal mediation analysis framework, the C-MAPLE (Causal Mediation Analysis of Pathways Linking Exposures) method, to identify disease-causing pathways for which the effect of genetic variants is mediated through metabolites to impact age-related diseases. Unlike Mendeli...
