PCDH11X variation is not associated with late-onset Alzheimer disease susceptibility.

Abstract excerpt

A recent genome-wide association study and follow-up shows significant association with the protocadherin 11 X-linked (PCDH11X) gene. Carrasquillo et al. (2009) show statistical association with four PCDH11X polymorphisms (rs5984894, rs2573905, rs5941047, rs4568761) in five of seven cohorts. The combined analysis of 2356 cases and 2384 controls showed the strongest association with a P value of 2.2×10 with an...
