Loss-of-function variants in SORL1 are causative for Alzheimer's disease.
“Loss of function variants in SORL1 are causative for Alzheimer's disease (ad)”
From The Alzheimer's Disease Gene SORL1 Regulates Lysosome Function in Human Microglia (2025) · cites this paper as Kunkle et al. 2017
The ‘Variants in Known EOAD Genes’ section reports a SORL1 frameshift variant in two sisters, one with Alzheimer’s disease and one with mild cognitive impairment. The Discussion calls SORL1 a risk factor, while Table 1 lists the frameshift variant’s clinical significance as undetermined; the paper does not establish that SORL1 loss-of-function variants cause Alzheimer’s disease. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredGenetic, epidemiological, and functional studies have established SORL1 as a gene that increases the risk for AD.
“Genetic, epidemiological, and functional studies have now cumulatively and unequivocally established SORL1 as a gene that increases the risk for ad, highlighting aberrant endo‐lysosomal trafficking as an important pathway in ad pathogenesis (Holstege et al. 2017, 2023; Kunkle et al. 2017; Lambert et al. 2013; Rogaeva et al. 2007; Scheltens et al. 2021).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
