Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants at MS4A4/MS4A6E, CD2AP, CD33 and EPHA1 are associated with late-onset Alzheimer's disease.

Adam C. Naj, +156 more
- 01 May 2011 - 
TL;DR: The Alzheimer Disease Genetics Consortium performed a genome-wide association study of late-onset Alzheimer disease using a three-stage design consisting of a discovery stage (stage 1), two replication stages (stages 2 and 3), and both joint analysis and meta-analysis approaches were used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of Alzheimer Disease Neuropathologic Changes With Cognitive Status: A Review of the Literature

TL;DR: Evidence from many independent research centers strongly supports the existence of a specific disease, as defined by the presence of A&bgr; plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Primary age-related tauopathy (PART): a common pathology associated with human aging

John F. Crary, +43 more
TL;DR: A new term is recommended, “primary age-related tauopathy” (PART), to describe a pathology that is commonly observed in the brains of aged individuals, yet this pathological process cannot be specifically identified pre-mortem at the present time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants at 7p21 are associated with frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 inclusions

Vivianna M. Van Deerlin, +107 more
- 01 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is found that FTLD-TDP associates with multiple SNPs mapping to a single linkage disequilibrium block on 7p21 that contains TMEM 106B, which implicate variants in TMEM106B as a strong risk factor for FTLD, suggesting an underlying pathogenic mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common genetic variants in the CLDN2 and PRSS1-PRSS2 loci alter risk for alcohol-related and sporadic pancreatitis

David C. Whitcomb, +201 more
- 01 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: Two associations at genome-wide significance identified and replicated at PRSS1-PRSS2 and X-linked CLDN2 are reported and could partially explain the high frequency of alcohol-related pancreatitis in men.
