Abstract / Description of output
The circulating proteome offers insights into the biological pathways that underlie disease. Here, we test relationships between 1,468 Olink protein levels and the incidence of 23 age-related diseases and mortality in the UK Biobank (N=47,600). We report 3,209 associations between 963 protein levels and 21 incident outcomes. Next, protein-based scores (ProteinScores) are developed using penalised Cox regression. When applied to test sets, six ProteinScores improve Area Under the Curve (AUC) estimates for the 10-year onset of incident outcomes beyond age, sex and a comprehensive set of 24 lifestyle factors, clinically-relevant biomarkers and physical measures. Furthermore, the ProteinScore for type 2 diabetes outperforms a polygenic risk score and HbA1c – a clinical marker used to monitor and diagnose type 2 diabetes. Performance of scores using metabolomic and proteomic features is also compared. These data characterise early proteomic contributions to major age-related disease, demonstrating the value of the plasma proteome for risk stratification
