Uveitis, characterized by inflammation of the iris, ciliary body, and choroid, presents a significant global clinical challenge, contributing substantially to visual impairment. Risk factors include autoimmune diseases and immune cell dysfunctions, yet many remain unidentified. Immune cells, notably T cells, B cells, and monocytes, play pivotal roles in uveitis pathogenesis. While biologic agents show promise, comprehensive studies on immune cell types in ocular diseases are lacking. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and Mendelian randomization (MR) present promising avenues to elucidate genetic susceptibilities and causal relationships between immune cell traits and uveitis risk. Two-sample MR analysis was used to evaluate the causal relationship between 731 immune cells and uveitis, and genome-wide significance analysis was performed for genetic variation in 731 immune cells traits (P < 5 × 10-8). Immune characteristics include median fluorescence intensity (MFI), relative cell counts (RC), absolute cell counts (AC), and morphological parameters (MP), which were determined by published GWAS, and public data from the IEU Open GWAS database. The main analysis method of MR is inverse variance weighting (IVW). Heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy were also assessed. 5 immunophenotypes, including CD62L-DC %DC, IgD+ CD38dim %B cell, CD3 on CM CD4+T cell, CD3 on CD45RA-CD4 +T cell, and CD3 on CD39+ CD4+ Treg may increase the risk of uveitis. 5 immunophenotypes, including CD11b on CD33dim HLA DR-Myeloid cell, HLA DR on CD33dim HLA DR+ CD11b-myeloid cell, CD14-CD16 + %monocyte, HLA DR on CD14-CD16 + monocyte and PDL-1 on CD14-CD16 + monocyte was negatively associated with the risk of uveitis. Among them, HLA DR on CD14-CD16 + monocyte (OR=0.921, 95%CI =0.875-0.970, P=0.001) and HLA DR on CD33dim HLA DR+ CD11b- (OR=0.879, 95%CI = 0.833-0.927, P=0.00) were negatively associated with the risk of uveitis in bi-direction. These results indicate that 10 immune cells traits are significantly associated with the risk of developing uveitis and 2 of them were strongly associated with uveitis bi-directionally, after excluding the effects of confounding factors such as some immune diseases, which provided new ideas and therapeutic targets for the study of immune mechanism of uveitis.
