The effect of Alzheimer’s disease-associated genetic variants on longevity

2021-02-04

Abstract excerpt

The genetics underlying human longevity is influenced by the genetic risk to develop -or escape- age-related diseases. As Alzheimer’s disease (AD) represents one of the most common conditions at old age, an interplay between genetic factors for AD and longevity is expected. We explored this interplay by studying the prevalence of 38 AD-associated single-nucleotide-polymorphisms (SNPs) identified in AD-GWAS, in sel...
