Abstract

Aging is associated with reductions in hippocampal volume (HV) that are accelerated by Alzheimer’s disease and vascular risk factors. Our genome-wide association study of dementia-free persons (n=9,232) identified 46 SNPs at four loci with p-values <4.0×10-7. Two additional samples (n=2,318) replicated associations at 12q24 within MSRB3/WIF1 (discovery + replication, rs17178006; p=5.3×10-11) and at 12q14 near HRK/FBXW8 (rs7294919; p=2.9×10-11). Remaining associations included one 2q24 SNP within DPP4 (rs6741949; p=2.9×10-7) and nine 9p33 SNPs within ASTN2 (rs7852872; p=1.0×10-7) that were also associated with HV (p<0.05) in a third younger, more heterogeneous sample (n=7,794). The ASTN2 SNP was also associated with decline in cognition in a largely independent sample (n=1,563). These associations implicate genes related to apoptosis (HRK), development (WIF1), oxidative stress (MSR3B), ubiquitination (FBXW8), enzymes targeted by new diabetes medications (DPP4), and neuronal migration (ASTN2), indicating novel genetic influences that influence hippocampal size and possibly the risk of cognitive decline and dementia.

<p id="P1">Aging is associated with reductions in hippocampal volume (HV) that are accelerated by Alzheimer’s disease and vascular risk factors. Our genome-wide association study of dementia-free persons (n=9,232) identified 46 SNPs at four loci with p-values <4.0×10
<sup>-7</sup>
. Two additional samples (n=2,318) replicated associations at 12q24 within
<italic>MSRB3/WIF1</italic>
(discovery + replication, rs17178006; p=5.3×10
<sup>-11</sup>
) and at 12q14 near
<italic>HRK/FBXW8</italic>
(rs7294919; p=2.9×10
<sup>-11</sup>
). Remaining associations included one 2q24 SNP within
<italic>DPP4</italic>
(rs6741949; p=2.9×10
<sup>-7</sup>
) and nine 9p33 SNPs within
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
(rs7852872; p=1.0×10
<sup>-7</sup>
) that were also associated with HV (p<0.05) in a third younger, more heterogeneous sample (n=7,794). The
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
SNP was also associated with decline in cognition in a largely independent sample (n=1,563). These associations implicate genes related to apoptosis (
<italic>HRK</italic>
), development (
<italic>WIF1)</italic>
, oxidative stress (
<italic>MSR3B</italic>
), ubiquitination (
<italic>FBXW8</italic>
), enzymes targeted by new diabetes medications (
<italic>DPP4</italic>
), and neuronal migration (
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
), indicating novel genetic influences that influence hippocampal size and possibly the risk of cognitive decline and dementia.</p>

<abstract>
<p id="P1">Aging is associated with reductions in hippocampal volume (HV) that are accelerated by Alzheimer’s disease and vascular risk factors. Our genome-wide association study of dementia-free persons (n=9,232) identified 46 SNPs at four loci with p-values <4.0×10
<sup>-7</sup>
. Two additional samples (n=2,318) replicated associations at 12q24 within
<italic>MSRB3/WIF1</italic>
(discovery + replication, rs17178006; p=5.3×10
<sup>-11</sup>
) and at 12q14 near
<italic>HRK/FBXW8</italic>
(rs7294919; p=2.9×10
<sup>-11</sup>
). Remaining associations included one 2q24 SNP within
<italic>DPP4</italic>
(rs6741949; p=2.9×10
<sup>-7</sup>
) and nine 9p33 SNPs within
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
(rs7852872; p=1.0×10
<sup>-7</sup>
) that were also associated with HV (p<0.05) in a third younger, more heterogeneous sample (n=7,794). The
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
SNP was also associated with decline in cognition in a largely independent sample (n=1,563). These associations implicate genes related to apoptosis (
<italic>HRK</italic>
), development (
<italic>WIF1)</italic>
, oxidative stress (
<italic>MSR3B</italic>
), ubiquitination (
<italic>FBXW8</italic>
), enzymes targeted by new diabetes medications (
<italic>DPP4</italic>
), and neuronal migration (
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
), indicating novel genetic influences that influence hippocampal size and possibly the risk of cognitive decline and dementia.</p>

among 9,232 dementia-free persons from eight community-based studies whose mean age ranged from 56 to 84 years (weighted average, 67.1 years).

<p id="P14">We sought additional replication of our significant and suggestive associations by testing the lead (or proxy) SNP from each locus in the Enhancing Neuro Imaging Genetics through Meta Analysis (ENIGMA) consortium. Briefly, this group (n=7,794, mean age 39.9 years) combined multiple studies including normal older individuals, a developmental sample, and cases symptomatic for cognitive or affective diseases. Among the ENIGMA sample, we observed a consistent direction of association for all cross-study comparisons. For the loci where the lead SNP was available in ENIGMA, replication was strongest at
<italic>HRK/FBXW8</italic>
(rs7294919, p=1.6×10
<sup>-7</sup>
) and nominal at
<italic>DPP4</italic>
(rs6741949, p=0.04). While the lead SNPs were not available at the other loci, one proxy SNP in weak (r

<italic>MSRB3</italic>
) and another in strong LD with rs7852872 (
<italic>ASTN2</italic>
) both had p-values< 0.05 in ENIGMA (
<xref rid="T2" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref>
).</p>
<p id="P15">Because the ENIGMA and CHARGE samples differed in two key aspects—ENIGMA’s inclusion of younger adults (8 of 13 studies had no participants older than 65 years) and of some persons with cognitive impairment and dementia (13% of the sample)—we examined the top loci in subsamples of healthy persons (n=5,775, mean age 34.8 years) and of cognitively intact older persons (n=816, mean age 67.2 years). Association estimates, were generally similar to those of the full sample (

<p id="P16">Given the established relationship between hippocampal atrophy and AD, we investigated whether SNPs from published AD GWAS

(p=0.01). However, in aggregate, various known AD SNPs explained less than 1% of the observed variance in HV.</p>

<xref rid="SD2" ref-type="supplementary-material">Supplementary Table 6</xref>

, providing evidence for the potential importance of this region.</p>
<p id="P18">The strengths of the current study include the large population-based sample. In the discovery sample, our power to detect genome-wide significant associations on the order of 0.2 standard deviations in HV (~128 mm
<sup>3</sup>
, in the largest single sample: the AGES_Reykjavik study) was modest for rare variants (68% for 0.05 MAF) and strong for more common variants (>99% for 0.10 MAF). Additional power estimates are shown in
<xref rid="SD2" ref-type="supplementary-material">Supplementary Figure 3</xref>
. The concordance of these associations in ENIGMA provides additional biological validation in a population that included younger persons, suggesting that these genes are developmentally important and may be related to maximal adult HV. ENIGMA also has a substantial proportion of persons with dementia, which indicates that these genes may remain important in regulating response to injury. The ability to explore the association of our lead SNPs with cognitive decline provided further context to our findings. Finally, we demonstrated modest associations between previously described Alzheimer’s disease risk SNPs and smaller HV in our samples.</p>
<p id="P19">The study also has limitations. A single cross-sectional assessment was used in all studies and MRI and reading protocols varied across participating studies: some studies used manually-traced boundaries (the gold standard) whereas others used computerized algorithms. Although correlation between these two methods is good (Pearson’s
<italic>r</italic>
=0.7)
<sup>
<xref rid="R48" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>
</sup>
, the heterogeneity of measurement techniques may have compromised our ability to detect small associations. Although our sample size was reasonably large, we may have missed associations with small effect sizes as well as rare variants not covered by commercial genotyping arrays.</p>
<p id="P20">Prior studies have suggested that cognitive, neuropathological, and MRI endophenotypes of AD might be early and more sensitive markers of genetic risk than clinical dementia. Hence, it could be argued that genes associated with AD risk should also be associated with HV, even in our dementia-free sample. Although four AD genes were associated with HV, several were not; so in this study HV was not a more sensitive measure than clinical AD. It is clear that genetic analysis of MRI endophenotypes within a healthy older community-based cohort study is not an ideal study design to identify all the genes associated with clinical AD. Our aim, however, was to identify genetic influences on hippocampal development and response to aging and not AD
<italic>per se</italic>
.</p>
<p id="P21">In summary, we detected four genetic loci associated with HV in a large, population-based, dementia-free sample. Two of these loci replicated in independent community-based samples as well as in ENIGMA, a mixed age sample that included some participants with cognitive impairment indicating that these loci may have broad implications for determining the integrity of the hippocampus across a range of ages and cognitive capacities. Findings from this study identified a series of relevant and potentially important genes associated with HV during development, with aging, and in the presence of Alzheimer’s disease. Exploration of these genomic regions with dense genotyping, expression, and translational studies will be required to understand the role of these genes in determining HV.</p>

<title>Regional plots for hippocampal volume SNPs</title>
<p>Plots are centered on the most significant SNP at a given locus along with the meta-analysis results for SNPs in a region surrounding it (typically ± 100kb). All SNPs are plotted with their discovery meta-analysis p-values against their genomic position, with the most significant SNP in the region indicated as a diamond and other SNPs shaded according to their pairwise correlation (
<italic>r

<p>Plots show the study-specific association estimates (β) and 95% confidence intervals for the discovery and replication stage studies, presented as rectangles and bars. Arrowheads indicate confidence intervals that span beyond the x-axis. Study specific results are indicated by: AGES, Aging Gene-Environment Susceptibility—Reykjavik Study; ARIC, Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study, ASPS, Austrian Stroke Prevention Study; ERF, Erasmus Ruchphen Family study; FHS, Framingham Heart Study; RUSH, Religious Order Study & Rush Memory and Aging Project; RS I, RS II, RS III, RS R, independent phases of the Rotterdam Study; TASCOG, Tasmanian Study of Cognition and Gait; 3C, Three City Study. Estimates from the replication phase (3C, RS R) are indicated by open rectangles. The scale is mm
