Membership in Genetic Groups Predicts Alzheimer Disease
REJUVENATION RESEARCH(2006)
摘要
The multiple polymorphisms contributing to Alzheimer disease (AD) have been difficult to identify. Three essentially sufficient risk sets were found using a fuzzy latent classification statistical model; that is, grade-of-membership analysis, and genotypes for APOE, APOCI, LDLr, cystatin C, and cathepsin D (180 cases, 120 controls). These were: (a) CST3:G (A) under bar and CTSD:C (T) under bar (b) APOE <(44)under bar > and LDLr8:<(GG)under bar > and LDLr13:<(TT)under bar >; and (c) APOE3 (4) under bar and LDLr13:(T) under barC. Consonance with one of the groups and high aggregate membership carried > 800-fold elevated risk for AD. The absence of these combinations defined low risk. APOE3/- with heterozygous promoter and receptor genotypes predicted long life without dementia.
