Causal relationship between circulating inflammatory proteins and risk of different types of encephalitis: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study
Background
Cytokines are potent molecules of the immune response. They act at the site of inflammation and circulate in the bloodstream. However, there are few studies on encephalitis and circulating inflammatory proteins.
Methods
In this study, Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to explore the potential causal effect of 91 circulating inflammatory proteins on 3 different types of encephalitis. Causal effects were examined using Steiger, MR-Egger, weighted median, and inverse variance weighting (IVW) methods. IVW methods were primarily used for results interpretation. In addition, sensitivity analyses were performed, including assessment of heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, and Leave-one-out techniques.
Results
We subjected 91 circulating inflammatory proteins to MR analysis of causality with each of the three types of encephalitis. The results suggested that the inflammatory factors with a potential causal relationship with viral encephalitis were caspase 8, C-X-C motif chemokine 6, interleukin-10, interleukin-15 receptor subunit alpha, interleukin-7, and TNF-beta. Inflammatory factors potentially causally associated with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis are beta-nerve growth factor, cystatin D, interleukin-7,
This finding identifies potential causal effects of certain circulating inflammatory factors on susceptibility to three types of encephalitis. It also suggests the therapeutic potential of modulating the levels of these cytokines. A basis for further research is provided.
期刊介绍:
The journal Cytokine has an open access mirror journal Cytokine: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
* Devoted exclusively to the study of the molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, immunology, genome-wide association studies, pathobiology, diagnostic and clinical applications of all known interleukins, hematopoietic factors, growth factors, cytotoxins, interferons, new cytokines, and chemokines, Cytokine provides comprehensive coverage of cytokines and their mechanisms of actions, 12 times a year by publishing original high quality refereed scientific papers from prominent investigators in both the academic and industrial sectors.
We will publish 3 major types of manuscripts:
1) Original manuscripts describing research results.
2) Basic and clinical reviews describing cytokine actions and regulation.
3) Short commentaries/perspectives on recently published aspects of cytokines, pathogenesis and clinical results.
