  • 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.

Diet

  • excess refined carbohydrates and added sugars Moderate

    High intake of refined carbs and added sugars increases triglycerides; reduction can mitigate genetic risk

    Limit added sugars to <6% of daily calories; choose whole grains over refined

Exercise

  • aerobic exercise for triglyceride management Moderate

    Aerobic exercise effectively lowers triglycerides, mitigating genetic predisposition to elevation

    150 minutes moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week

Screening

  • triglyceride level screening Moderate

    T allele at rs117005907 associated with elevated triglycerides (GWAS p=4.00e-9, n=361194)

    Measure fasting triglycerides at baseline and annually if risk allele present
