Popis: CHD5 is an essential factor for neuronal differentiation and neurodegenerative diseases. Here, the targeted next generation sequencing and TaqMan genotyping technologies were carried out for CHD5 gene in a two-staged case-control study in Chinese population. The genetic statistics and gene-environment interactions were analyzed to find certain risk factors of Alzheimer's disease. We found intronic rs11121295 was associated with the risk of Alzheimer's disease at both stages including combined cohorts. This risk effect presented consistently significant associations with the alcoholic subgroups at both all stages in the stratified analysis. The gene-environment interactions further supported the above findings. Our study highlighted the potential role of CHD5 variants in conferring susceptibility to sporadic Alzheimer's disease, especially modified its risk by alcoholic intake.
