Unraveling the link between sterol ester and colorectal cancer: a two-sample mendelian randomization study
Several studies reported the sterol ester (SE), a subclass of subtype of cholesterol ester (CE), is associated with the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC). Nevertheless, the causal relationship of SE on CRC remains unknown. A two-sample Mendelian randomization study was performed with the summary...

Summary: | Several studies reported the sterol ester (SE), a subclass of subtype of cholesterol ester (CE), is associated with the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC). Nevertheless, the causal relationship of SE on CRC remains unknown.
A two-sample Mendelian randomization study was performed with the summary statistics of SE (27:1/14:0) which is from the largest available genome-wide association study meta-analysis(n = 377277) conducted by FinnGen consortium. The summary data were obtained from UK Biobank repository (377673 cases and 372016 controls). And we used a relative relaxed filter (p |
