High-density lipoprotein (HDL) exhibits multiple metabolic protective functions, such as facilitating cellular cholesterol efflux, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic and anti-thrombotic properties, showing antidiabetic renoprotective potential. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is considered to be associated with high-density (HDL-C). The hyperglycemic environment, non-enzymatic glycosylation, carbamylation, oxidative stress systemic inflammation can cause changes in the quantity quality of HDL, resulting reduced HDL levels abnormal function.

There is no reliable causal evidence for the effect of statins on diabetic nephropathy (DN) and retinopathy (DR), results previous observational studies are contradictory. Genetic variants linked to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from a UK biobank genome-wide association study located within 100kb window around HMGCR were used proxy statins, comparing with PCSK9 inhibitors (control).

We aim to explore potential causal relationship between three common types drugs and diabetic through drug-target Mendelian randomization (MR) study, laying groundwork for development new medications. Methods: In this we collected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated HMGCR (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase) inhibitors, PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) NPC1L1 (Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1) inhibitors from published genome-wide association study statistics.
