  1. Results from our drug-target MR analysis of the druggable genome19 on five aging phenotypes. Genes significantly associated with an aging phenotype at a FDR of 0.05 and colocalized at PP.H4 > 0.75 are displayed. Standard errors are with respect to beta values. Statistical analyses were conducted using two-sided t-tests.
  2. MR Mendelian randomization, FDR false discovery rate, IVW inverse variance weighted, IEAA intrinsic epigenetic age acceleration.
