  • Pleiotropic genetic architecture and novel loci for C-reactive protein levels - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 36376304

    ABSTRACT: C-reactive protein is involved in a plethora of pathophysiological conditions. Many genetic loci associated with C-reactive protein are annotated to lipid and glucose metabolism genes supporting common biological pathways between inflammation and metabolic traits. To identify novel pleiotropic loci, we perform multi-trait analysis of genome-wide association studies on C-reactive protein levels along with cardiometabolic traits, followed by a series of in silico analyses including colocalization, phenome-wide association studies and Mendelian randomization. We find 41 novel loci and 19 gene sets associated with C-reactive protein with various pleiotropic effects. Additionally, 41 variants colocalize between C-reactive protein and cardiometabolic risk factors and 12 of them display

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Bloodwork

  • C-reactive protein (CRP) level Moderate

    Genetic association with elevated baseline CRP, a marker of systemic inflammation and cardiovascular risk

    Check annually or biennially; track trend over time

Diet

  • Anti-inflammatory foods Moderate

    A allele associated with elevated CRP; dietary patterns rich in omega-3s and polyphenols reduce systemic inflammation

    2-3 servings fatty fish weekly, 4-5 servings vegetables daily

Exercise

  • Regular aerobic exercise Moderate

    Aerobic exercise reduces CRP levels and attenuates chronic inflammation

    150 minutes moderate aerobic activity per week
