EWAS Title An Epigenetic Signature in Peripheral Blood Associated with Neurodegenerative Tauopathy and the Risk-Associated Haplotype on 17q21.31
Disease/Phenotype dementia
Group1 frontotemporal dementia (FTD)
Group2 Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP)
Group1 Sample Size 128
Group2 Sample Size 43
Summary Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two neurodegenerative diseases linked, at the pathologic and genetic level, to the macrutubule associated protein tau. We identified and replicated a dose-dependent effect of the risk-associated H1 haplotype on methylation levels within the region in independent datasets in blood and brain. These data reveal that the H1 haplotype increases risk for tauopathy via differential methylation, indicating a mediating role for methylation in dementia pathophysiology.
