Abstract
Objectives
Observational studies have indicated that type 1 diabetes (T1D) is prevalent in multiple sclerosis (MS), yet the causality remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to assess the causal association between MS and T1D.
Methods
We employed a Mendelian randomization method using two samples to research the causal association between MS and T1D. The study primarily utilized the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method, and we use three methods (MR Egger, Weighted median, Weighted mode) for auxiliary analysis. To avoid reverse causality, we employed the Steiger Test method to further examine the screened SNPs. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis was conducted to ensure the robustness of the obtained results.
Results
When MS was considered as the exposure variable and T1D as the outcome variable, the results indicated a significant positive correlation (IVW, OR=1.078, 95 % CI: 1.041−1.117; p<0.001). Conversely, when T1D is the exposure in question, the causal relationship with MS remains undetermined. These results were further validated through sensitivity analysis.
Conclusions
The MR analysis results indicate that there is a causal relationship between MS and T1D. We provide compelling genetic evidence to support the causal connection between MS and an increased risk of T1D.
Introduction
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the immune system that involves inflammation and damage to the protective layer of nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord, known as demyelination. This autoimmune condition leads to the progressive deterioration of the central nervous system (CNS) [1]. This disease is believed to result from complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors, primarily affecting middle-aged and young adults [2]. It is a recurrent condition without a cure [3]. Comorbidities are common in MS, and chronic comorbidities can lead to delayed diagnosis, increased mortality, and challenges in clinical management and treatment.
Epidemiological studies have found that MS is more prevalent among individuals with autoimmune diseases, including T1D [4]. Although implicating different organs, autoimmune diseases have the shared pathogenesis or are caused by the shared predisposing factors [5], 6], so comorbidities of autoimmune diseases are common. Previous studies have shown that MS and T1D share immunological and epidemiological characteristics [7]. T1D, a chronic autoimmune disease, is characterized by the destruction of β cells. This ultimately leads to a complete deficiency of insulin [8]. There is evidence to suggest that T1D may directly exacerbate autoimmune dysfunction in MS, suggesting a possible common mechanism in the development of these two diseases [9]. However, the causal relationship between MS and T1D has not been elucidated. In order to examine the genetic causality, we implemented the two sample MR method to scrutinize the plausible causal linkage between MS and T1D.
Mendelian randomization is a statistical approach that harnesses genetic instrumental variables to establish causal links between exposure and outcome [10]. It minimizes bias caused by unmeasured confounding factors and reverse causality [11], providing stronger evidence for causal inference than observational studies [12]. In this study, we implemented the two sample MR method to scrutinize the plausible causal linkage between MS and T1D.
Methods
Study design
This study assessed the Two Sample MR analysis method and Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) summary data to estimate the causal effect of exposure on outcomes [13], 14], the objective of this research was to assess the causal association between MS and T1D, its complications. The study is based on three Assumption of Mendelian inheritance [15]: (1) The exposure demonstrates a significant correlation with the selected instrumental variable. (2) No confounding factors are found to be linked to the instrumental variables. (3) The instrumental variables exclusively influence outcomes via exposure and exclude any other mechanisms (Figure 1).

By applying these assumptions and the two sample MR method, this study seeks to provide stronger evidence for the causal relationship between MS and T1D minimizing the bias caused by unmeasured confounding factors and reverse causality.
Data resource
For MS, we utilized a large scale GWAS dataset from the International Multiple Sclerosis Genetics Consortium (IMSGC), comprising of 47,429 cases and 68,374 controls [16]. For T1D, we utilized a GWAS data from the UK-Biobank, comprising of 18,942 cases and 501,638 controls [17]. We used the largest and most comprehensive database that has been analyzed to date (Table 1). To decrease the potential deviation in the analysis of MR caused by population stratification, all the data utilized in this study were obtained from individuals of European descent. Given that the research relied on publicly available GWAS aggregated statistical data and did not involve individual-level data analysis, ethical approval was not sought.

All data used in this study were obtained from public databases. Formal approval from the Medical Ethics Review Committee was not required as the Medical Research Involving Human Subjects Act does not apply for this study.
Statistical analysis
Selection of instrumental variables (IVs)
Pursuant to the MR analysis principle, for the MS dataset, the sample size is small, to expand the SNP screening range, we set the screening threshold at P<5 × 10−6, for the T1D dataset, we set the screening threshold at P<5 × 10−8. We set the genetic distance to 10,000 kb and excluded SNPs with R2<0.001. From the exposure dataset, we screened out instrumental variables without a linkage effect, and further filtered those significantly associated with outcome (P<5 × 10−5) among the screened instrumental variables. In addition, we employed the Steiger Test method to further examine the screened SNPs, indicating that the selected instrumental variables did not demonstrate a reverse causal relationship and were relatively robust [18]. To ensure the instrumental variables possessed significant statistical significance, we calculated the F statistics for each SNP using the formula F=R2 × (N−2)/(1–R2) , R2=2 × EAF × (1−EAF) × β2 (R2: genetic variance explained by each SNP; N: sample size of the exposed dataset; EAF: the effect allele frequency; β: the estimated effect of SNP), only SNPs with F statistics greater than 10 were included as instrumental variables for analysis [19].
Mendelian randomization analysis
In our research, we primarily use the Inverse Variance Weighted (IVW) method as our main analysis tool, this is the most commonly used MR analysis method, due to its simplicity and ease of implementation [20]. It estimates the causal effect by combining the results of multiple genetic variants using the inverse of the variance as a weight. The IVW method does not require an intercept term in the regression model and uses the reciprocal of the outcome variance (standard error’s quadratic power) as the weight for fitting [21]. Given the significant heterogeneity among the instrumental variables, we employed the random-effects IVW model as our primary analytical method, as it better accommodates this heterogeneity and provides more robust causal estimates. To enhance the stability of our results, we also employ “MR egger” [22], “Weighted median” [23], and “Weighted mode” as supplementary methods. By combining these approaches, we aim to provide more accurate and reliable estimates of the causal effects associated with genetic variants and their impact on various traits or diseases.
Sensitivity analysis
In sensitivity analysis, to eliminate confounding factors that could introduce bias into the results, we utilized the NHGRI-EBI Catalog (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/) to meticulously examine each SNP. We excluded those SNPs that were directly associated with the outcome or were suspected of having a potential causal relationship. And then, we employ the MR Egger [22] to assess pleiotropy bias. We utilize MR PRESSO [24] to detect level pleiotropy outliers. Heterogeneity testing is employed to identify disparities between individual instrumental variables. Cochran’s Q statistic utilized for calculating heterogeneity [25]. If genetic variance estimates for causal effects exhibit heterogeneity (p≤0.05), we employ the I2 metric to measure the portion of SNP variation explained by this divergence [26]. We adopt leave one out test to investigate the influence of individual SNPs on causal relationships and to verify the stability of the results [27]. The statistical analyses were using R (version 4.3.0), and the Two Sample MR software package was utilized to analyze all the collected data. All code used in the analysis has been uploaded to GitHub. We set p value<0.05 as statistically significant.
Results
MS was considered as the exposure variable, while T1D was investigated as the outcome variable, we selected 103 SNPs as instrumental variables, and F statistics are all greater than 10 (Table S1). The MR results revealed that the beta values of the four analysis methods were consistent, the odds ratios (OR) assess was 1.078 (IVW, 95 % CI: 1.041−1.117; p<0.001) (Table 2). Sensitivity analysis was also conducted, and heterogeneity testing demonstrated moderate heterogeneity (Q=196.324, p<0.05). Then, we calculated the I2 (I2=48.045) (Table S3), which is considered moderate, indicating that heterogeneity is acceptable [26]. MR Egger showed no pleiotropy (intercept=0.003, p=0.585). When T1D was used as the exposure variable, MS as the outcome variable, we selected 52 SNPs as instrumental variables, and all F statistics were greater than 10 (Table S2). MR results indicated no correlation (IVW, OR=0.994, 95 % CI: 0.947−1.044; p=0.817).

Scatter plot illustrates the correlation between MS and T1D (Figure S1). Leave One Out [27] analyzing each SNP’s impact by excluding it revealed that the results remained unchanged (Figure S2, Table S4 and S5). Based on the findings, a significant association between MS and T1D is indicated, this implies that MS elevates the likelihood of developing T1D (Figure 2).

Discussion
This is the first study to Mendelian randomization investigation in Multiple sclerosis and Type 1 diabetes. The current findings from Mendelian randomization research suggest that MS, when considered as an exposure, exhibits a positive causal relationship with T1D. Conversely, when T1D is the exposure in question, the causal relationship with MS remains undetermined.
Previous observational studies have indicated that individuals with MS have a significantly higher risk of developing T1D [9], 28]. In a population-based investigation carried out in Sardinia, it came to light that the frequency of T1D amid MS patients surpasses that of the overall population by fivefold [28].A recent study has identified common genetic characteristics and pathways between T1D and MS through a systems biology approach. Nahid and colleagues analyzed the gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and pancreatic β-cells from T1D patients, as well as PBMCs and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from MS patients. By integrating the differentially expressed genes with protein-protein interaction data, they constructed an Inquiry-Inquiry Protein-Protein Interaction (QQPPI) network. Further analysis of the QQPPI network revealed that the key genes shared in both T1D and MS diseases include those involved in immune response (IKBKE, NF-κB2, and RAC1), the proteasome (PSMA1), the spliceosome (SRPK1, YBX1, and MYC), and apoptosis (HSP90AB1) [29]. A recent study has further confirmed the shared role of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes, particularly the DRB1 and DQB1 alleles, in the pathogenesis of MS and T1D through meta-analysis and the integration of data from multiple studies [30]. The research findings indicate that certain HLA genetic variants significantly increase the risk of developing both conditions. The perspective of HLA genes acting synergistically in MS and T1D enhances the explanatory power of genetic mechanisms [30]. This phenomenon can be attributed to the presence of DRB1*0405-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0301, DRB1*0301-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201 haplotypes in this distinctive population, these two haplotypes have been identified as risk factors for both diseases [31]. Genetic variations can only partially explain the concurrent occurrence of MS and T1D, suggesting that other factors are also involved. A recent study has explored in detail the mechanism of enhanced autoimmune response in patients with MS, including abnormal activation of T and B cells, overexpression of inflammatory factors, and disruption of the blood-brain barrier. These immune disorders may increase the risk of T1D in patients with MS [32].
Multiple population-based studies and high-quality clinical investigations involving T1D patients consistently demonstrate an elevated risk of MS development [33], 34]. These results present a fascinating yet perplexing epidemiological phenomenon, which the original researchers described as “together at last” when characterizing the MS-T1D risk association. Notably, despite immunological assertions that HLA patterns of T1D and MS are mutually exclusive [34], rigorous clinical evidence has conclusively established bidirectional disease risk between these conditions. While our MR analysis indicates a causal relationship between MS and T1D, we emphasize that the genetic evidence specifically supports MS as a causal factor for increased T1D risk. Conversely, when T1D is examined as the exposure, the causal relationship with MS remains statistically undetermined. Given that autoimmune diseases typically arise from complex interactions between genetic predisposition and environmental factors [5], we propose that environmental triggers or other modulators may underlie the observed increased MS risk in T1D patients. Alternatively, future studies may benefit from incorporating more comprehensive and ethnically diverse genomic datasets for MR analyses to further elucidate the underlying genetic relationships.
Uncovering this causal relationship between T1D and MS is crucial for disease prevention and management, ultimately reducing the significant burden of disease. In comparison to observational research, this study possesses significant advantages. GWAS data employed in this research are the largest and most publicly available to date [16], 17]. Rather than solely relying on the IVW method as the main analysis technique, this study also employs various MR analysis methods to enhance the accuracy of our findings. In addition, we prevent potential horizontal pleiotropy in genetic instrumental variables, ensuring the validity of our results. Concurrently, we employ the Steiger Test to detect and screen SNPs to avoid reverse causal relationships [18]. We calculate the F statistics of the SNPs and exclude those with F statistics greater than 10, thus guaranteeing the robustness of the final SNPs included in the analysis. Lastly, we perform multiple sensitivity analyses on our results to guarantee their reliability.
However, this study does possess limitations. Firstly, the GWAS data utilized were sourced from European samples, which raises the question of whether the observed results are applicable to other populations. As such, future studies exploring the causal relationship between MS and T1D using the Mendelian method should consider incorporating samples from diverse ethnic groups, thereby enhancing the breadth and universality of the findings. Secondly, the publicly aggregated GWAS data used in this study prevent subgroup analysis, which may lead to some bias in the results. Finally, we acknowledge that this study lacks experimental validation using an independent cohort.
This study is the first to decipher the causal relationship between MS and T1D, supplementing previous observational studies and providing a reasonable biological explanation. Our findings contribute to enhancing the understanding of the comorbidity mechanism between MS and T1D. Thus, this study significantly contributes to the field of MS and T1D research, offering valuable insights into their potential genetic connections. Concurrently, our research offers a novel foundation for early prevention among T1D patients.
