Exploring the causal relationship between inflammatory cytokines and myasthenia gravis: A two-way Mendelian randomization study

This study uncovers a new connection between inflammatory cytokines and MG, shedding light on potential factors contributing to the development of the disease. Elevated levels of Eotaxin and IL-2ra are associated with a higher risk of MG, while indicating that MIG, MIP1α, GROa, IL-13, TRAIL, IL-2ra, and IL-1ra may be elevated as a result of MG, Especially MIG. These findings suggest that targeting and regulating specific inflammatory factors could offer promising avenues for the treatment and prevention of MG.
