Abstract:Proteome-wide Mendelian randomization (MR) has emerged as a promising approach in uncovering novel therapeutic targets. However, genetic colocalization analysis has revealed that a third of MR associations lacked a shared causal signal between the protein and disease outcome, raising questions about the effectiveness of this approach. The impact of proteome-wide MR, stratified by cis-trans status, in the presence or absence of genetic colocalization, on therapeutic target identification remains largely unknown… Show more
