In this study, Mendelian randomization (MR) and colocalization analysis were conducted to assess the potential causal relationship between AITDs and TL using summary statistics from large\u2010scale genome\u2010wide association studies,\u00a0followed by analysis of the relationship between TL and thyroid stimulating hormone\u00a0and free thyroxine (FT4) to help interpret the findings. The inverse variance weighted (IVW) method was used to estimate the causal estimates. The weighted median, MR\u2012Egger\u00a0and leave\u2010one\u2010out methods were used as sensitivity analyses. The IVW method results showed a significant causal relationship between autoimmune hyperthyroidism and TL (<jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009\u22121.93\u2009\u00d7\u200910<jats:sup>\u22122<\/jats:sup>; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20094.54\u2009\u00d7\u200910<jats:sup>\u22125<\/jats:sup>). There was no causal relationship between autoimmune hypothyroidism and TL (<jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009\u22123.99\u2009\u00d7\u200910<jats:sup>\u22123<\/jats:sup>; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.324). The results of the reverse MR analysis showed that genetically TL had a significant causal relationship on autoimmune hyperthyroidism (IVW: odds ratio (OR)\u2009=\u20090.49; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20092.83\u2009\u00d7\u200910<jats:sup>\u22124<\/jats:sup>) and autoimmune hypothyroidism (IVW: OR\u2009=\u20090.86; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20097.46\u2009\u00d7\u200910<jats:sup>\u22123<\/jats:sup>). Both horizontal pleiotropy and heterogeneity tests indicated the validity of our bidirectional MR study. Finally, colocalization analysis suggested that there were shared causal variants between autoimmune hyperthyroidism and TL, further highlighting the robustness of the results. In conclusion, autoimmune hyperthyroidism may accelerate telomere attrition, and telomere attrition is a causal factor for AITDs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/cen.15004","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,12]],"date-time":"2024-01-12T09:29:35Z","timestamp":1705051775000},"page":"294-303","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The
