• Identification of 16 novel Alzheimer's disease loci using multi‐ancestry meta‐analyses - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39998322

  ABSTRACT: Abstract INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia. While many AD‐associated genetic determinants have been identified, few studies have analyzed individuals of non‐European ancestry. METHODS We conducted a multi‐ancestry genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of clinically diagnosed AD and AD‐by‐proxy using whole genome sequencing data from the National Institute on Aging Genetics of Alzheimer's Disease Data Storage Site (NIAGADS), National Institute of Mental Health, UK Biobank (UKB), and All of Us (AoU) consisting of 49,149 cases (12,074 clinically diagnosed and 37,075 AD‐by‐proxy) and 383,225 controls. Nearly half of NIAGADS and AoU participants were of non‐European ancestry. RESULTS For clinically diagnosed AD, we identified

• Longitudinal change in memory performance as a strong endophenotype for Alzheimer's disease - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37985223

  ABSTRACT: Abstract INTRODUCTION Although large‐scale genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) have been conducted on AD, few have been conducted on continuous measures of memory performance and memory decline. METHODS We conducted a cross‐ancestry GWAS on memory performance (in 27,633 participants) and memory decline (in 22,365 participants; 129,201 observations) by leveraging harmonized cognitive data from four aging cohorts. RESULTS We found high heritability for two ancestry backgrounds. Further, we found a novel ancestry locus for memory decline on chromosome 4 (rs6848524) and three loci in the non‐Hispanic Black ancestry group for memory performance on chromosomes 2 (rs111471504), 7 (rs4142249), and 15 (rs74381744). In our gene‐level analysis, we found novel genes for memory d

• Sex‐specific genetic architecture of late‐life memory performance - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37984853

  ABSTRACT: Abstract BACKGROUND Women demonstrate a memory advantage when cognitively healthy yet lose this advantage to men in Alzheimer's disease. However, the genetic underpinnings of this sex difference in memory performance remain unclear. METHODS We conducted the largest sex‐aware genetic study on late‐life memory to date (N males = 11,942; N females = 15,641). Leveraging harmonized memory composite scores from four cohorts of cognitive aging and AD, we performed sex‐stratified and sex‐interaction genome‐wide association studies in 24,216 non‐Hispanic White and 3367 non‐Hispanic Black participants. RESULTS We identified three sex‐specific loci (rs67099044-CBLN2, rs719070-SCHIP1/IQCJ‐SCHIP), including an X‐chromosome locus (rs5935633-EGL6/TCEANC/OFD1), that
