Blood pressure interacts with APOE ε4 to predict memory performance in a midlife sample.
OBJECTIVE Elevated blood pressure and the Apolipoprotein ε4 allele (APOE ε4) are independent risk factors for Alzheimer's disease. We sought to determine whether the combined presence of the APOE ε4 allele and elevated blood pressure is associated with lower cognitive performance in cognitively healthy middle-aged adults. METHODS A total of 975 participants aged 30-54 (mean age = 44.47) were ...
متن کاملSex and APOE: A memory advantage in male APOE ε4 carriers in midlife
Short-term memory in middle-aged individuals with different APOE alleles was examined using a recently developed task which is sensitive to medial temporal lobe (MTL) damage. Individuals (age-range: 40-51 years) with ε3/ε3, ε3/ε4 and ε4/ε4 APOE genotypes (N = 60) performed a delayed estimation task with a sensitive continuous measure of report. The paradigm allowed us to measure memory for item...
متن کاملA coding variant in CR1 interacts with APOE-ε4 to influence cognitive decline.
Complement receptor 1 (CR1) is an Alzheimer's disease (AD) susceptibility locus that also influences AD-related traits such as episodic memory decline and neuritic amyloid plaque deposition. We implemented a functional fine-mapping approach, leveraging intermediate phenotypes to identify functional variant(s) within the CR1 locus. Using 1709 subjects (697 deceased) from the Religious Orders Stu...
متن کاملAlzheimer's disease genetic risk variants beyond APOE ε4 predict mortality
INTRODUCTION We hypothesized that, like apolipoprotein E (APOE), other late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) genetic susceptibility loci predict mortality. METHODS We used a weighted genetic risk score (GRS) from 21 non-APOE LOAD risk variants to predict survival in the Adult Changes in Thought and the Health and Retirement Studies. We meta-analyzed hazard ratios and examined models adjusted ...
متن کاملAPOE ε4 differentially influences change in memory performance depending on age. The SMART-MR study
The apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene may act differently in young and old persons, known as antagonistic pleiotropy. We therefore examined the prospective associations between the APOE ε4 allele and cognitive functioning, and the modifying effect of age, in 375 nondemented adults (mean age 57 ± 10 years; follow-up period 3.8 ± 0.2 years) with available data on APOE genotype and cognitive functionin...
