  • Multi-trait association analysis reveals shared genetic loci between Alzheimer's disease and cardiovascular traits - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39537608

    ABSTRACT: Several cardiovascular traits and diseases co-occur with Alzheimer's disease. We mapped their shared genetic architecture using multi-trait genome-wide association studies. Subsequent fine-mapping and colocalisation highlighted 16 genetic loci associated with both Alzheimer's and cardiovascular diseases. We prioritised rs11786896, which colocalised with Alzheimer's disease, atrial fibrillation and expression of PLEC in the heart left ventricle, and rs7529220, which colocalised with Alzheimer's disease, atrial fibrillation and expression of C1Q family genes. Single-cell RNA-sequencing data, co-expression network and protein-protein interaction analyses provided evidence for different mechanisms of PLEC, which is upregulated in left ventricular endothelium and cardiomyocyte

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Diet

  • Limit dietary sodium intake Moderate

    High sodium raises blood pressure; carriers of BP-raising variant may benefit from sodium restriction

    Target less than 2,300 mg sodium per day

Exercise

  • Regular aerobic exercise for blood pressure management Moderate

    Exercise reduces blood pressure; genetic predisposition makes regular activity important

    150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity

Screening

  • Blood pressure monitoring Moderate

    Variant associated with increased diastolic blood pressure in large population study

    Check blood pressure annually or as clinically indicated
