Low mitochondrial copy number drives atherogenic cardiovascular disease: evidence from prospective cohort analyses in the UK Biobank combined with Mendelian Randomization
2021-07-02
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content might be involved in the risk of cardiovascular disease. We aimed to investigate the association of mtDNA copy number (mtDNA-CN), as a proxy of mtDNA content, and coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure (HF) using multivariable adjusted and Mendelian Randomizations (MR) analyses. <h4>Methods</h4> Multivariable-adjusted analyses were conducted using Cox-...
