ABSTRACT
The plasma proteome can mediate poor oral health problems (POHP)'s link to incident dementia. We screened 37,269 UK Biobank participants 50-74 years old (2006-2010) for prevalent POHP, further tested against 1463 plasma proteins and incident dementia over up to 15 years of follow-up. Total effect (TE) of POHP-dementia through plasma proteomic markers was decomposed into pure indirect effect (PIE), interaction referent (INTREF), controlled direct effect (CDE), or mediated interaction (INTMED). POHP increased the risk of all-cause dementia by 17% (P < 0.05). Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) exhibited the strongest mediating effects (PIE > 0, P < 0.001), explaining 28% the total effect of POHP on dementia, as a pure indirect effect. A first principal component encompassing top 4 mediators (GDF15, IL19, MMP12, and ACVRL1), explained 11% of the POHP-dementia effect as a pure indirect effect. Pathway analysis including all mediators (k = 173 plasma proteins) revealed the involvement of the immune system, signal transduction, metabolism, disease, and gene expression, while STRING analysis indicated that top mediators within the first principal component were also represented in the two largest proteomic clusters. The dominant biological GO pathway for the GDF15 cluster was GO0007169 labeled as "transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway." Dementia is linked to POHP mediated by GDF15 among several proteomic markers.
