Assessing the repurposing potential of disease-modifying antirheumatic drug targets to reduce Alzheimer’s disease risk: a pQTL-based Mendelian randomization and colocalization analysis

2025-08-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Current literature has implicated systemic inflammation in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the viability of anti-inflammatory drug targets as repurposed treatment candidates for AD remains unclear. We utilized two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) and colocalization analysis to investigate whether disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) targets reduce AD risk. <h4...
