• Genome-wide association studies of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders stratified by sex, onset age, and Apolipoprotein E genotype reveal novel risk loci in African Americans. - Alzheimer's research & therapy (2025) · Sherva R, Zhu C, Zhang R, Mez J, Hauger R, Merritt VC, Panizzon M, Gaziano JM, Catanzaro V, Schellenberg GD, Pericak-Vance M, Haines JL, Wang LS, Mayeux R, Farrer LA, Logue MW · PubMed 40708016

  Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk variants have been identified in European ancestry cohorts that have stronger effects at certain ages, in individuals with a specific sex, or in those with specific isoforms of APOE, the strongest AD risk locus. However, sample sizes in African ancestry (AA) cohorts have been underpowered to perform stratified analyses. We generated genome-wide association study datasets stratified by sex, age at onset (< 75 vs ≥ 75), and APOE-ε4 carrier status in AA cohorts from MVP and the Alzheimer's Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC). Outcomes in MVP were AD and related dementias (ADRD; n = 4073 cases and 19,648 controls) and proxy dementia (i.e., reported dementia in a parent, n = 6216 cases and 21,566 controls) while ADGC analyses examined AD (n = 24
