Abstract Previous studies from European and East Asian cohorts reported conflicting results over whether and how the frequencies of the three common alleles, ε2, ε3 and ε4, of the apolioprotein E gene (APOE), in long-lived individuals differ from those in younger age groups. This study was the first to analyse these frequencies of long-lived individuals from central China. Genotyping of APOE alleles and genotypes was carried out in 70 long-lived individuals and 204 younger controls. No difference in the frequency of any APOE allele or genotype was found between the long-lived participants and their younger controls, but the long-lived group seemed to have a higher ε4 frequency (15.71%) than the 24–50 and 51–75 age groups (10.2% and 11.32%, P > 0.05). Notably, when compared with two other Chinese studies, the central China long-lived group had a higher ε4 frequency than its southern and eastern China counterparts (15.71% vs. 2.82% and 2.54%, P |
