rs1799724, a SNP in the tumor necrosis factor
TNF gene, was found in a study of ~500 Caucasians to be both an independent risk factor for the development of
Alzheimer's disease and also a modifier of the risk for individuals carrying
ApoE4 alleles. [
PMID 15895461]
On its own, the rs1799724(T) allele led to an odds ratio of 1.63 (CI: 1.13-2.34, p=0.009). In carriers of ApoE4 alleles, the odds ratio changed from 2.92 (CI: 2.00-4.27) in the absence of rs1799724(T) to an OR of 6.65 (CI: 3.26-13.55, p=0.03) in its presence. [PMID 15895461]
