Abstrakt: The Nuclear Factor Kappa-b (NF-Κb) pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer´s disease (AD). We determined whether common variants in the NF-Κb genes were associated with the risk of developing late-onset AD (LOAD). A total of 639 Spanish LOAD and 500 controls were genotyped for the NFKB1 rs28362491/rs7667496, NFKBIA rs696, NFKBIZ rs3217713 and APOE-Ɛ2/3/4 polymorphisms. Rs7667496 C was increased in the patients (p<0.001) with the CC genotype showing a significant risk (CC vs T+, OR= 1.58, 95 %CI=1.25-2.01). The CC genotype was significantly associated with LOAD after correction by APOE-4+ genotypes, age and sex (p=0.0003, OR=1.88, 95 %CI=1.28-2.78). The NFKB1 rs28362491 I - rs7667496 C haplotype was significantly increased in the patients (p=0.02). NFKBIA and NFKBIZ variants were not associated with the risk of LOAD in our population. In conclusion, NFKB1 variants were associated with the risk of LOAD in our population. This finding encourages further studies to determine the involvement of the NF-kB components in LOAD.
