  • Background The epsilon 4 allele of apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene and increasing age are two of the most important known risk factors for developing Alzheimer disease (AD). The diagnosis of AD based on clinical symptoms alone is known to have poor specificity; recently developed diagnostic criteria based on biomarkers that reflect underlying AD neuropathology allow better assessment of the strength of the associations of risk factors with AD. Accordingly, we examined the global and age-specific association betweenAPOEgenotype and AD by using the A/T/N classification, relying on the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of beta-amyloid peptide (A, beta-amyloid deposition), phosphorylated tau (T, pathologic tau), and total tau (N, neurodegeneration) to identify patients with AD. Methods and findings This case-control study included 1,593 white AD cases (55.4% women; mean age 72.8 [range = 44-96] years) with abnormal values of CSF biomarkers from nine European memory clinics and the American Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) study. A total of 11,723 dementia-free controls (47.1% women; mean age 65.6 [range = 44-94] years) were drawn from two longitudinal cohort studies (Whitehall II and Three-City), in which incident cases of dementia over the follow-up were excluded from the control population. Odds ratio (OR) and population attributable fraction (PAF) for AD associated withAPOEgenotypes were determined, overall and by 5-year age categories. In total, 63.4% of patients with AD and 22.6% of population controls carried at least oneAPOE epsilon 4 allele. Compared with non-epsilon 4 carriers, heterozygous epsilon 4 carriers had a 4.6 (95% confidence interval 4.1-5.2;p< 0.001) and epsilon 4/epsilon 4 homozygotes a 25.4 (20.4-31.2;p< 0.001) higher OR of AD in unadjusted analysis. This association was modified by age (pfor interaction < 0.001). The PAF associated with carrying at least one epsilon 4 allele was greatest in the 65-70 age group (69.7%) and weaker before 55 years (14.2%) and after 85 years (22.6%). The protective effect ofAPOE epsilon 2 allele for AD was unaffected by age. Main study limitations are that analyses were based on white individuals and AD cases were drawn from memory centers, which may not be representative of the general population of patients with AD. Conclusions In this study, we found that AD diagnosis based on biomarkers was associated with APOE epsilon 4 carrier status, with a higher OR than previously reported from studies based on only clinical AD criteria. This association differs according to age, with the strongest effect at 65-70 years. These findings highlight the need for early interventions for dementia prevention to mitigate the effect ofAPOE epsilon 4 at the population level. Author summaryWhy was this study done? The epsilon 4 allele of apolipoprotein E () gene () and increasing age are two of the most important known risk factors for developing Alzheimer disease (AD). The recent development of diagnostic criteria based on biomarkers that reflect brain beta-amyloid and tau lesions (beta-amyloid deposition, pathologic tau, neurodegeneration [A/T/N] classification]) increases homogeneity in diagnosed cases. The strength of association of AD with risk factors can be better determined using biomarker-based AD compared with AD diagnosis based only on clinical criteria because the latter are known to lack specificity as a result of difficulties in ruling out other causes of dementia. What did the researchers do and find? We compared the overall and age-specific association between and AD using a case-control study that included 1,593 AD cases from memory clinics with positive cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers and 11,723 dementia-free controls drawn from two longitudinal cohort studies. The use of a large number of cases and controls allows assessment of whether the association between and AD is dependent on age. Compared with controls, patients with AD were more likely to carry one (odds ratio [OR] = 4.6) or two (OR = 25.3). This association was significantly modified by age, with the strongest association seen between 65 and 70 years of age and weaker associations at the two tails of the age distribution. What do these findings mean? Incorporating biomarkers for diagnosis of AD identified an association with that is apparently greater than has been previously reported using clinical diagnosis of the disease. The impact of on the risk of AD was strongest between the 65 and 70 years of age, earlier than the mean age at diagnosis in this study, which was 72.8 years.
