Polymorphism: apoAIV(360:His)


Location: 11q23

Factor:
- Symbol: APOA4
- Name: apolipoprotein A-IV
- Entrez ID: 337
- Ensembl ID: ENSG00000110244

Factors:
  • APOA4 apolipoprotein A-IV ( 337 / ENSG00000110244 )


  • Description:

    The comparison originally included AD patients and healthy aged individuals, but the n=119 refers to the aged individuals only -- I didn't include the AD old in the cases.

    Ethnicity: French
    Age of cases: 74.29 ∓ 8.46
    Shorter lived allele: ApoAIV-1_x000D_, by the order of the sentence - I'm assuming it's Glutamine = G

    Statistics
    - Number of cases/controls: 119 (see notes) vs 264 (initial)
    - p-value: 0.005 [<0.005]
    - Significant: Yes

    Study Design
    - Classifications: Longevity-Associated
    - Study type: Candidate Region/Gene

    Reference:
