Through machine learning methods and ROC curves, we identified the key gene semaphorin 3C (SEMA3C). MR analysis revealed that higher plasma levels of SEMA3C are associated with an increased risk of CAD (OR = 1.068, 95 % CI 1.012—1.128, <em>P</em> = 0.016) and low hand grip strength (HGS) (OR = 1.059, 95 % CI 1.010—1.110, <em>P</em> = 0.018) .</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>SEMA3C has been identified as a key gene for sarcopenia and CAD. This insight suggests that targeting SEMA3C may offer new therapeutic opportunities in related conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8306,"journal":{"name":"Archives of gerontology and geriatrics","volume":"131 ","pages":"Article 105762"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143018182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
