Reduces risk of Alzheimer's in those with epsilon 4
|
The risk of AD among those carrying an epsilon 4 and heterozygote gentotype at rs9472817 was intermediate between the other two homozygous genotypes. In the study cited for this SNP no specific p value is given for this heterozygote zygote result, though the CG genotype when considered in conjunction with epsilon 4 carriage yielded a p-value of p=1.02 * 10-13.
