Association of lipid-lowering drugs with gut microbiota: A Mendelian randomization study
BACKGROUND
The gut microbiota can be influenced by lipid metabolism. We aimed to evaluate the impact of lipid-lowering medications, such as proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors, Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 protein (NPC1L1) inhibitors, and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR) inhibitors, on gut microbiota through drug target Mendelian randomization (MR) investigation.
METHODS
We used genetic variants that were associated with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in genome-wide association studies and located within or near drug target genes as proxies for lipid-lowering drug exposure. In addition, expression trait loci in drug target genes were used as complementary genetic tools. We used effect estimates calculated using inverse variance weighted MR (IVW-MR) and summary data-based MR (SMR). Multiple sensitivity analyses were performed.
RESULTS
Genetic proxies for lipid-lowering drugs broadly affected the abundance of gut microbiota. High expression of NPC1L1 was significantly associated with an increase in the genus Eggerthella (β = 1.357, SE = 0.337, P = 5.615 × 10−5). An HMGCR-mediated increase in LDL-C was significantly associated with the order Pasteurellales (β = 0.489, SE = 0.123, P = 6.955 × 10−5) and the genus Haemophilus (β = 0.491, SE = 0.125, P = 8.379 × 10−5), whereas a PCSK9-mediated increase in LDL-C was associated with the genus Terrisporobacter (β = 0.666, SE = 0.127, P = 1.649 × 10−5). No pleiotropy was detected.
CONCLUSIONS
This drug target MR highlighted the potential interventional effects of lipid-lowering drugs on the gut microbiota and separately revealed the possible effects of different types of lipid-lowering drugs on specific gut microbiota.
期刊介绍:
Because the scope of clinical lipidology is broad, the topics addressed by the Journal are equally diverse. Typical articles explore lipidology as it is practiced in the treatment setting, recent developments in pharmacological research, reports of treatment and trials, case studies, the impact of lifestyle modification, and similar academic material of interest to the practitioner.
Sections of Journal of clinical lipidology will address pioneering studies and the clinicians who conduct them, case studies, ethical standards and conduct, professional guidance such as ATP and NCEP, editorial commentary, letters from readers, National Lipid Association (NLA) news and upcoming event information, as well as abstracts from the NLA annual scientific sessions and the scientific forums held by its chapters, when appropriate.
