| Abstract | Prior case–control studies from our laboratory of a population enriched with individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent suggested that association exists between Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and the chromosomal region near the DLD gene, which encodes the mitochondrial dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase enzyme. In support of this finding, we found that linkage analysis restricted to autopsy-proven patients in the National Institute of Mental Health–National Cell Repository for Alzheimer’s Disease (NIMH–NCRAD) Genetics Initiative pedigree data resulted in point-wise significant evidence for linkage (minimum p-value = 0.024) for a marker position close to the DLD locus. We now report case–control replication studies in two independent Caucasian series from the US and Italy, as well as a linkage analysis from the NIMH–NCRAD Genetics Initiative Database. Pair-wise analysis of the SNPs in the case–control series indicated there was strong linkage disequilibrium across the DLD locus in these populations, as previously reported. These findings suggest that testing for association of complex diseases with DLD locus should have considerable statistical power. Analysis of multi-locus genotypes or haplotypes based upon three SNP loci combined with results from our previous report provided trends toward significant evidence of association of DLD with AD, although neither of the present studies’ association showed significance at the 0.05 level. Combining linkage and association findings for all AD patients (males and females) results in a p-value that is more significant than any of the individual findings’ p-values. Finally, minimum sample size calculations using parameters from the DLD locus suggest that sample sizes on the order of 1,000 total cases and controls are needed to detect association for a wide range of genetic model parameters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
