Analysis of 470,000 exome-sequenced UK Biobank participants identifies genes containing rare variants which confer dementia risk

2024-11-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Previous studies have reported that rare coding variants in a handful of genes have major effects on risk of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). A recent exome wide association study (ExWAS) of dementia in a subset of the UK Biobank cohort implicated a number of genes, including five which were novel. Here we report a similar analysis, carried out on the full cohort of 470,000 exome-sequenced participant...
