Recent research has suggested that alterations in the composition and function of the skin microbiota may influence the aging process.

Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis provides a powerful tool to explore these causal links by utilizing genetic variants as instrumental variables, thereby minimizing confounding factors and reverse causality that often complicate observational studies.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We utilized a two-sample MR approach with population-based cross-sectional data from two German cohorts, KORA FF4 (n = 324) and PopGen (n = 273). In total, GWAS summary data from 1656 skin samples and datasets on accelerated biological age were analyzed to investigate the causal relationship between skin microbiota and accelerated biological aging.
