英文摘要Increased total plasma homocysteine (t-hcy) levels are found to be associated with alzheimer's disease (ad). because the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (mthfr) gene encodes a key enzyme that influences the metabolism of homocysteine, it has been considered as a possible genetic risk factor for ad. although the mthfr gene c677t polymorphism has a significant impact on reducing enzyme activity and increasing t-hcy concentrations, the association between the c677t polymorphism and ad remains inconclusive. to determine whether the mthfr gene c677t polymorphism contributes to the risk for late-onset ad (load) in chinese, we have investigated 104 sporadic load patients and 130 healthy controls. the strong associations of the tt genotype and t-allele with load (p = 0.001, or = 5.73 95% cl 1.85-17.72, and p = 0.002, or = 1.89 95% cl 1.25-2.86) were found. after stratifying by apolipoprotein e allele 4 (apoe epsilon 4) status, increased load risks associated with the tt genotype only in the apoe 84 noncarriers (chi(2) = 8.92, df 1, p = 0.003) and with the t-allele in either group (chi(2) = 5.18, df = 1, p = 0.023 and chi(2) = 5.53, df 1, p = 0.019) were seen. these results suggest that as an apoe epsilon 4 allele-dependent risk factor, the mthfr gene c677t polymorphism is involved in developing load in chinese.
