No association of dynamin binding protein (DNMBP) gene SNPs and Alzheimer's disease.

ABSTRACT: A recent scan of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on chromosome 10q found significant association of six correlated SNPs with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) among Japanese. We examined the SNP with the highest statistical significance (rs3740058) in a large Caucasian American case-control cohort and the remaining five SNPs in a smaller subset of cases and controls. We observed no association of statistical significance in either the total sample or the APOE*4 non-carriers for any of the SNPs.

No association of SORL1 SNPs with Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:SORL1 is an element of the amyloid precursor protein processing pathway and is therefore a good candidate for affecting Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk. Indeed, there have been reports of associations between variation in SORL1 and AD risk. We examined six statistically significant single-nucleotide polymorphisms from the initial observation in a large Caucasian American case-controls cohort (1000 late-onset AD [LOAD] cases and 1000 older controls). Analysis of allele, genotype and haplotype frequencies revealed no association with LOAD risk in our cohort.

Dynamin-like protein 1 cleavage by calpain in Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:Abnormal mitochondrial dynamics contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet the underlying mechanism remains elusive. In the current study, we reported that DLP1, the key mitochondrial fission GTPase, is a substrate of calpain which produced specific N-terminal DLP1 cleavage fragments. In addition, various AD-related insults such as exposure to glutamate, soluble amyloid-β oligomers, or reagents inducing tau hyperphosphorylation (i.e., okadaic acid) led to calpain-dependent cleavage of DLP1 in primary cortical neurons. DLP1 cleavage fragments were found in cortical neurons of CRND8 APP transgenic mice which can be inhibited by calpeptin, a potent small molecule inhibitor of calpain. Importantly, these N-terminal DLP1 fragments were also present in the human brains, and the levels of both full-length and N-terminal fragments of DLP1 and the full-length and calpain-specific cleavage product of spectrin were significantly reduced in AD brains along with significantly increased calpain. These results suggest that calpain-dependent cleavage is at least one of the posttranscriptional mechanisms that contribute to the dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics in AD.

Lack of association of two chromosome 10q24 SNPs with Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:Several groups have reported evidence of linkage on chromosome 10 to late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). In a recent scan of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on chromosome 10, significant associations between the rs498055 and rs4417206 SNPs and risk of LOAD were observed. We examined the association of these two SNPs with LOAD risk in a large Caucasian American cohort comprising about 2000 cases and controls. Neither SNP revealed significant association with LOAD risk or age-at-onset.

Association studies of 22 candidate SNPs with late-onset Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex and multifactorial disease with the possible involvement of several genes. With the exception of the APOE gene as a susceptibility marker, no other genes have been shown consistently to be associated with late-onset AD (LOAD). A recent genome-wide association study of 17,343 gene-based putative functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) found 19 significant variants, including 3 linked to APOE, showing association with LOAD (Hum Mol Genet 2007; 16:865-873). We have set out to replicate the 16 new significant associations in a large case-control cohort of American Whites. Additionally, we examined six variants present in positional and/or biological candidate genes for AD. We genotyped the 22 SNPs in up to 1,009 Caucasian Americans with LOAD and up to 1,010 age-matched healthy Caucasian Americans, using 5' nuclease assays. We did not observe a statistically significant association between the SNPs and the risk of AD, either individually or stratified by APOE. Our data suggest that the association of the studied variants with LOAD risk, if it exists, is not statistically significant in our sample.

No association of DAPK1 and ABCA2 SNPs on chromosome 9 with Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:Recently genetic variation in the DAPK1 and ABCA2 genes has been reported to be associated with late- and early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD), respectively. We examined the most significant two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DAPK1 in a large case-control cohort of late-onset subjects and matched controls and one of the most significant SNPs in ABCA2 in a small set of early-onset subjects as well. We did not detect associations with AD for any variation.

Screening and Evaluation of Deleterious SNPs in APOE Gene of Alzheimer's Disease.

Project description:Introduction. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is an important risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and is present in 30-50% of patients who develop late-onset AD. Several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are present in APOE gene which act as the biomarkers for exploring the genetic basis of this disease. The objective of this study is to identify deleterious nsSNPs associated with APOE gene. Methods. The SNPs were retrieved from dbSNP. Using I-Mutant, protein stability change was calculated. The potentially functional nonsynonymous (ns) SNPs and their effect on protein was predicted by PolyPhen and SIFT, respectively. FASTSNP was used for functional analysis and estimation of risk score. The functional impact on the APOE protein was evaluated by using Swiss PDB viewer and NOMAD-Ref server. Results. Six nsSNPs were found to be least stable by I-Mutant 2.0 with DDG value of >-1.0. Four nsSNPs showed a highly deleterious tolerance index score of 0.00. Nine nsSNPs were found to be probably damaging with position-specific independent counts (PSICs) score of ?2.0. Seven nsSNPs were found to be highly polymorphic with a risk score of 3-4. The total energies and root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values were higher for three mutant-type structures compared to the native modeled structure. Conclusion. We concluded that three nsSNPs, namely, rs11542041, rs11542040, and rs11542034, to be potentially functional polymorphic.

No Association between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) of the Interferon-Induced Transmembrane Protein 3 (<i>IFITM3</i>) Gene and the Susceptibility of Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Project description:Background and Objectives: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common progressive neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) in the brain. A recent study reported that the interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) protein plays a pivotal role in Aβ processing by the γ-secretase complex. Since several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the IFITM3 gene are related to the function and expression levels of the IFITM3 gene, the relationship between genetic polymorphisms in the IFITM3 gene and susceptibility to AD needs to be investigated. Materials and Methods: We investigated the genotype and allele frequencies of IFITM3 polymorphisms in 177 AD patients and 233 matched healthy controls by amplicon sequencing. In addition, we compared the genotype, allele and haplotype frequencies between AD patients and matched controls and performed an association analysis. Results: There were no significant differences in the genotype, allele or haplotype frequency distributions of the IFITM3 polymorphisms between AD patients and matched controls. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case-control association study of the IFITM3 gene in AD.

Association of adipocyte enhancer-binding protein 1 with Alzheimer's disease pathology in human hippocampi.

Project description:Adipocyte enhancer binding protein 1 (AEBP1) activates inflammatory responses via the NF-κB pathway in macrophages and regulates adipogenesis in preadipocytes. Up-regulation of AEBP1 in the hippocampi of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been revealed by microarray analyses of autopsied brains from the Japanese general population (the Hisayama study). In this study, we compared the expression patterns of AEBP1 in normal and AD brains, including in the hippocampus, using immunohistochemistry. The subjects were 24 AD cases and 52 non-AD cases. Brain specimens were immunostained with antibodies against AEBP1, tau protein, amyloid β protein, NF-κB, GFAP and Iba-1. In normal brains, AEBP1 immunoreactivity mainly localized to the perikarya of hippocampal pyramidal neurons, and its expression was elevated in the pyramidal neurons and some astrocytes in AD hippocampi. Although AEBP1 immunoreactivity was almost absent in neurons containing neurofibrillary tangles, AEBP1 was highly expressed in neurons with pretangles and in the tau-immunopositive, dystrophic neurites of senile plaques. Nuclear localization of NF-κB was also observed in certain AEBP1-positive neurons in AD cases. Comparison of AD and non-AD cases suggested a positive correlation between the expression level of AEBP1 and the degree of amyloid β pathology. These findings imply that AEBP1 protein has a role in the progression of AD pathology.

From SNPs to genes: disease association at the gene level.

Project description:Interpreting Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) at a gene level is an important step towards understanding the molecular processes that lead to disease. In order to incorporate prior biological knowledge such as pathways and protein interactions in the analysis of GWAS data it is necessary to derive one measure of association for each gene. We compare three different methods to obtain gene-wide test statistics from Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) based association data: choosing the test statistic from the most significant SNP; the mean test statistics of all SNPs; and the mean of the top quartile of all test statistics. We demonstrate that the gene-wide test statistics can be controlled for the number of SNPs within each gene and show that all three methods perform considerably better than expected by chance at identifying genes with confirmed associations. By applying each method to GWAS data for Crohn's Disease and Type 1 Diabetes we identified new potential disease genes.

Association of SNPs in the FK-506 binding protein (FKBP5) gene among Han Chinese women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Project description:BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in premenopausal women, whose etiology remains uncertain, although it is known to be highly heterogeneous and genetically complex. PCOS often presents with hyperandrogenism symptoms. The present study aimed to determine whether polymorphisms in the FK-506 binding protein 5 (FKBP5) gene (androgen target gene) are associated with an association for PCOS and hyperandrogenism.MethodsThis is a case-control study, and association analyses were conducted. A total of 13 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the FKBP5 gene were evaluated in 775 PCOS patients who were diagnosed based on the Rotterdam Standard and 783 healthy Chinese Han women. Associations between FKBP5 SNPs and hormone levels were investigated. These 13 SNPs were genotyped using the Sequenom MassARRAY system, and an association analysis between the phenotype and alleles and genotypes were conducted.ResultsThe genotype frequencies for the rs1360780 and rs3800373 SNPs differed significantly between the PCOS cases and healthy controls (p = 0.025, OR is 1.63 (1.05-2.53) and p = 0.029, OR is 1.59 (1.03-2.45) respectively under co-dominant model). Moreover, the genotype frequencies and genetic model analysis for the SNPs rs1360780, rs9470080, rs9296158, rs1043805 and rs7757037 differed significantly between the hyperandrogenism and non-hyperandrogenism groups of PCOS patients. The TT genotype of rs1360780, the TT genotype of rs9470080, the TT genotype of rs1043805 or the GG genotype of rs7705037 (ORs are 2.13 (1.03-4.39), 1.81 (1.03-3.17), 2.94 (1.32-6.53) and 1.72 (1.04-2.84) respectively) were correlated with androgen level of PCOS patients.ConclusionOur study showed that FKBP5 gene polymorphisms are associated with PCOS generally (rs1360780 and rs3800373) and with the hyperandrogenism subtype specifically (rs1360780, rs9470080, rs9296158, rs1043805 and rs7757037).
