Findings

This rare variant was found in both cases and controls of European ancestry.

In a study that included 15,808 Alzheimer’s cases and 16,097 control subjects from multiple European and American cohorts, this allele was observed 64 times—31 times among the AD cases and 33 times among the controls (Holstege et al., 2022). A mega-analysis of these data did not find an association between the variant and AD risk. This result confirmed the findings of two relatively small studies in which the variant did not associate with AD (Fernández et al., 2016; Sassi et al., 2016).

Functional Consequences

The variant was predicted to be tolerated by SIFT and benign by PolyPhen-2, and it was classified as a polymorphism by Mutation Taster (Sassi et al., 2016).

aAllele frequencies as reported by study authors or calculated by Alzforum curators from data provided in the study, assuming heterozygosity if not explicitly stated in the paper.

This table is meant to convey the range of results reported in the literature. As specific analyses, including co-variates, differ among studies, this information is not intended to be used for quantitative comparisons, and readers are encouraged to refer to the original papers. Thresholds for statistical significance were defined by the authors of each study. (Significant results are in bold.) Note that data from some cohorts may have contributed to multiple studies, so each row does not necessarily represent an independent dataset. While every effort was made to be accurate, readers should confirm any values that are critical for their applications.
