Abstract

The vascular hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has proposed the involvement of brain hypoperfusion in AD pathogenesis, where cognitive decline and dysfunction result from dwindling cerebral blood flow (CBF). Based on the vascular hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease, we focused on exploring how genetic factors influence AD pathogenesis via the cerebrovascular system. To investigate the role of CBF endophenotypes in AD pathogenesis, we performed a targeted genetic analysis of 258 subjects from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative cohort to examine associations between 4033 single-nucleotide polymorphisms of 24 AD genes and CBF measures in 4 brain regions. A novel association with CBF measure in the left angular gyrus was identified in an INPP5D single-nucleotide polymorphism (i.e., rs61068452; p = 1.48E-7; corrected p = 2.39E-3). The gene-based analysis discovered both INPP5D and CD2AP associated with the left angular gyrus CBF. Further analyses on nonoverlapping samples revealed that rs61068452-G was associated with lower CSF t-tau/Aβ 1-42 ratio. Our findings suggest a protective role of rs61068452-G in an AD-relevant cerebrovascular endophenotype, which has the potential to provide novel insights for better mechanistic understanding of AD.

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.
