Recently, a region encompassing the promoter and intron 1 of the paraoxonase 1 gene (PON1) have been associated with the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a large pan-ethnic (Caucasian and African-American) dataset. We attempted to replicate this observation in a large French study of sporadic cases and controls. We confirmed that the proximal promoter and 5' sequence of the PON1 gene may harbor unknown functional variant(s) associated with the risk of developing AD.
最近,在一个大型泛种族(白种人和非裔美国人)数据集中,对氧磷酶1基因(PON1)启动子和内含子1区域与患阿尔茨海默病(AD)的风险相关。我们试图在一项针对散发病例和对照的大型法国研究中重复这一观察结果。我们证实,PON1基因的近端启动子和5'序列可能存在与患AD风险相关的未知功能变异。
