| Abstract | Recently, two CpG sites in ankyrin 1 (ANK1) gene were identified to be hypermethylated and associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-related neuropathology in two large independent studies. Genetic variations are indicated to be involved in DNA methylation, especially when the associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are located adjacent to the CpG site. Accordingly, ANK1 polymorphisms might contribute to late-onset AD (LOAD) risk. One polymorphism rs515071 was identified to be a potential risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D). As shared genetic background was found underlying T2D and AD, we postulate that rs515071 polymorphism may be associated with late-onset AD (LOAD) risk and assessed the association in 982 LOAD patients and 1346 sex- and age-matched healthy controls. Our results showed that minor allele A of rs515071 significantly increased LOAD risk in the APOE ε4 (+) subgroup (genotype P = 0.015, allele P = 0.020). After adjusting for age and gender, the association remained significant under the dominant model (OR = 1.809, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 1.186–2.757, P = 0.006). In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that rs515071 in ANK1 is a novel genetic risk for LOAD susceptibility in Han Chinese. |

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.
