  • 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

  • Triglyceride levels (lipid panel) Moderate

    LPL variants affecting triglyceride metabolism warrant regular assessment of lipid status

    Lipid panel at baseline and annually

Diet

  • Refined carbohydrates and excess alcohol Moderate

    Dietary refined carbohydrates and alcohol increase triglyceride production, particularly in genetically predisposed individuals

    Limit simple sugars and alcohol; favor complex carbohydrates and whole grains

Discuss with your doctor

  • Genetic predisposition to elevated triglycerides and personalized management Moderate

    Medical evaluation can determine baseline triglyceride levels, assess cardiovascular risk, and establish management strategy including potential pharmacotherapy

Exercise

  • Regular aerobic exercise Moderate

    Aerobic exercise reduces triglyceride levels and may offset genetic predisposition to elevated triglyceridemia

    150 minutes moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week
