  • Genome-Wide Association and Mechanistic Studies Indicate That Immune Response Contributes to Alzheimer's Disease Development - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30319691

    ABSTRACT: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. Although genome-wide association study (GWAS) have reported hundreds of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and genes linked to AD, the mechanisms about how these SNPs modulate the development of AD remain largely unknown. In this study, we performed GWAS for three traits in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and one clinical trait in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) cohort. Our analysis identified five most significant AD related SNPs (FDR < 0.05) within or proximal to APOE, APOC1, and TOMM40. One of the SNPs was co-inherited with APOE allele 4, which is the most important genetic risk factor for AD. Three of the five SNPs were located in promoter or enhancer regions, and transcription factor (TF)

  • Genome-Wide Association Study of Antibody Response to Smallpox Vaccine - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 22542470

    ABSTRACT: We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of antibody levels in a multi-ethnic group of 1,071 healthy smallpox vaccine recipients. In Caucasians, the most prominent association was found with promoter SNP rs10489759 in the LOC647132 pseudogene on chromosome 1 (p=7.77 × 10-8). In African-Americans, we identified eight genetic loci at p< 5 × 10-7. The SNP association with the lowest p-value (rs10508727, p=1.05 × 10-10) was in the Mohawk homeobox (MKX) gene on chromosome 10. Other candidate genes included LOC388460, GPR158, ZHX2, SPIRE1, GREM2, CSMD1, and RUNX1. In Hispanics, the top six associations between genetic variants and antibody levels had p-values less than 5 × 10-7, with p=1.78 × 10-10 for the strongest statistical association (promoter SNP rs12256830 in th
