载脂蛋白E基因(APOE)的ε4等位基因是迟发性阿尔茨海默病(LOAD)的主要危险因素,但既不是引起该疾病的必要因素,也不足以引起该疾病。在这项研究中,我们调查了早老素-1(PS-1)和丁酰胆碱酯酶(BChE)基因的多态性,这两个基因被认为是LOAD的危险因素。我们的数据集包括177名AD患者和118名对照患者,所有这些患者都在尸检后得到组织病理学证实。我们检测了PS-1等位基因1的纯合性和BChE-K变异体与APOE ε4的相关性作为LOAD的危险因素。我们的研究结果支持PS-1多态性和LOAD之间的关联,发现等位基因1的纯合性与大约两倍的风险增加相关。我们的数据还表明,在年龄大于75岁的受试者中,同时拥有BChE-K和APOE-ε4等位基因与LOAD风险增加相关,而单独与APOE-ε4等位基因相关的风险并不显著。
The ε4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) is a major risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) but is neither necessary nor sufficient to cause the disease. In this study, we investigated polymorphisms in the presenilin-1 (PS-1), and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) genes, which have been implicated as risk factors for LOAD. Our data-set comprised 177 AD and 118 control patients, all of whom had been histopathologically confirmed following autopsy. We have tested homozygosity for the PS-1 allele 1 and possession of the BChE-K variant in association with APOE ε4 as risk factors in LOAD. Our findings support an association between the PS-1 polymorphism and LOAD, finding homozygosity for allele 1 associated with an approximately two-fold increased risk. Our data also show that in subjects greater than 75 years of age possession of both BChE-K and APOE-ε4 alleles is associated with an increased risk of LOAD, whilst the risk associated with APOE-ε4 allele alone is not significant.
