    ABSTRACT: Abstract INTRODUCTION We aimed to define the genetic architecture and regulatory mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) ‐related plasma biomarkers in an East Asian population. METHODS Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) of plasma phosphorylated tau at threonine 217 (pTau217), pTau181, neurofilament light chain (NfL), and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were performed in 1,972 individuals from the Korea‐Registries to Overcome and Accelerate Dementia Research (K‐ROAD) cohort. Results were integrated with Korean single‐nucleus transcriptomics, AD‐relevant brain quantitative trait loci resources, and summary‐based Mendelian randomization (SMR) and colocalization analyses. RESULTS Genome‐wide significant loci were identified for all biomarkers, including DACT

Bloodwork

  • Plasma p-tau181 levels Moderate

    This SNP is associated with increased plasma p-tau181, a biomarker of neurodegeneration risk.

    Periodic measurement to track neurodegeneration biomarker levels

Discuss with your doctor

  • Cognitive decline risk and monitoring strategy Moderate

    Elevated plasma p-tau181 is a biomarker associated with neurodegeneration risk, warranting clinical discussion.
