AIMS: Observational studies have reported that homocysteine (Hcy) is associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in individuals with diabetes, though controversy remains. The present study aimed to investigate the causal association between Hcy and CAD in individuals with diabetes.
METHODS: A 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study was designed to infer causality. Genetic summary data on the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with Hcy were extracted from the hitherto largest genome-wide association study (GWAS) of up to 44,147 individuals of European ancestry. SNP-CAD data were obtained from another recently published GWAS which included 15,666 individuals with diabetes (3,968 CAD cases, 11,696 controls). The fixed-effects inverse variance-weighted method was employed to calculate the effect estimates. Other robust methods and leave-one-out analyses were used in the follow-up sensitivity analyses. Potential pleiotropy was assessed with the MR-Egger intercept test.
RESULTS: The 2-sample MR analysis suggested no evidence of an association between genetically predicted plasma Hcy levels and CAD risk in individuals with diabetes (odds ratio = 1.14, 95% confidence interval: 0.82-1.58, p = 0.43) using 9 SNPs as instrumental variables. Similar results were observed in the follow-up sensitivity analyses. The MR-Egger intercept test indicated no evidence of directional pleiotropy (intercept = 0.03, 95% confidence interval: - 0.08-0.03, p = 0.35).
CONCLUSION: This 2-sample MR analysis found no evidence of a causal association between plasma Hcy levels and CAD risk in individuals with diabetes.
