Mendelian randomization study on causal association of FAM210B with drug-induced lupus.

MR analysis showed a causal relationship between FAM210B expression and the risk of DIL disease. Our results suggested that FAM210B may be a marker that can mark susceptibility of DIL in the future. It provides evidence for the study of DIL, but its specific mechanism of action in DIL needs to be further studied. Key Points •This is the first MR analysis to examine the association between FAM210B and DIL. •The findings of this study suggested that reduced FAM210B expression is associated with the increased risk of DIL. •FAM210B may be a marker that can mark susceptibility of DIL in the future.
