Evaluating the consequences of childhood adiposity on the human plasma proteome at four timepoints across the lifecourse

Abstract Applying a lifecourse approach using human genetic data, we evaluate the effect of childhood adiposity on the circulating proteome using measurements taken at four key life stages. Using lifecourse Mendelian randomization, we find genetically predicted childhood adiposity to have an effect on 8 proteins measured during childhood (mean age: 9.9 years) including increased circulating TNFSF11 which is involved in T cell-dependent immune responses.

Lewis Fry Richardson, a former student of King’s College Cambridge, who was working as an ambulance driver during the First World War, realised that being able to predict the weather could help save lives.
