Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A single-nucleotide polymorphism in the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene (isoleucine to valine; V405) is associated with slower memory decline and a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease. 27033407 2016
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cholesterol has been implicated in the pathogenesis of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) and the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is critical to cholesterol regulation within the cell, making CETP an Alzheimer's disease candidate gene. 25260850 2015
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In conclusion, there was no association between cholesteryl ester transfer protein gene polymorphisms and the risk of AD, carotid atherosclerosis, longevity, and the efficacy of statin therapy in the pooled effects of overall population. 24468472 2014

Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE CETP polymorphisms associate with brain structure, atrophy rate, and Alzheimer's disease risk in an APOE-dependent manner. 21892657 2012

0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In addition, we discuss the recent findings that expand the functions of CETP to new areas of interest such as Alzheimer's disease, inflammation, and obesity. 21488146 2011
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE To test the hypothesis that a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at CETP codon 405 (isoleucine to valine V405; SNP rs5882) is associated with a lower rate of memory decline and lower risk of incident dementia, including Alzheimer disease (AD). 20068209 2010
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our data suggest that CETP gene variations influence cerebral and peripheral cholesterol metabolism, but not AD risk. 18680734 2008
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In the present study, we investigated the association of four CETP SNPs (D442G, L296Q, Taq1B and I405V) with the risk for sporadic AD in Northern Han-Chinese. 18036514 2008
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our results suggest that the VV genotype of the I405V polymorphism of the CETP gene increases the risk of AD in the absence of the APOE*4 allele, probably through a cholesterol metabolism pathway in the brain. 17503098 2007
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our data suggest that CETP behaves as a modifier gene of the AD risk associated with the APOE epsilon4 allele, possibly through modulation of brain cholesterol metabolism. 16096813 2006
