Validation of lipid-related therapeutic targets for coronary heart disease prevention using human genetics

2020-11-11

Abstract excerpt

Drug target Mendelian randomization (MR) studies use DNA sequence variants in or near a gene encoding a drug target, that alter its expression or function, as a tool to anticipate the effect of drug action on the same target. Here, we applied MR to prioritize drug targets for their causal relevance for coronary heart disease (CHD). The targets were further prioritized using genetic co-localization, protein express...
