Featured ArticleA candidate regulatory variant at the TREM gene cluster associates with decreased Alzheimer's disease risk and increased TREML1 and TREM2 brain gene expression
چکیده انگلیسی


- rs9357347-C, 5′ TREM2, is associated with reduced AD risk (Puncorrected = 1 × 10−03).
- TREM2 and TREML1 are the only TREM cluster genes with reliable brain expression.
- Higher brain levels of TREM2 and TREML1 associate with rs9357347-C.
- rs9357347 is predicted to affect transcription factor binding (SP1 and PPAR).
- Increased gene expression of TREML1 and TREM2 may reduce AD risk.

IntroductionWe hypothesized that common Alzheimer's disease (AD)-associated variants within the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid (TREM) gene cluster influence disease through gene expression.MethodsExpression microarrays on temporal cortex and cerebellum from ∼400 neuropathologically diagnosed subjects and two independent RNAseq replication cohorts were used for expression quantitative trait locus analysis.ResultsA variant within a DNase hypersensitive site 5′ of TREM2, rs9357347-C, associates with reduced AD risk and increased TREML1 and TREM2 levels (uncorrected P = 6.3 × 10−3 and 4.6 × 10−2, respectively). Meta-analysis on expression quantitative trait locus results from three independent data sets (n = 1006) confirmed these associations (uncorrected P = 3.4 × 10−2 and 3.5 × 10−3, Bonferroni-corrected P = 6.7 × 10−2 and 7.1 × 10−3, respectively).DiscussionOur findings point to rs9357347 as a functional regulatory variant that contributes to a protective effect observed at the TREM locus in the International Genomics of Alzheimer's Project genome-wide association study meta-analysis and suggest concomitant increase in TREML1 and TREM2 brain levels as a potential mechanism for protection from AD.
