Figure 3. CSF AD biomarkers and distribution of brain region affected by specific PICALM variations in subgroup analyses. T allele of rs510566 had associations with higher CSF levels of Abeta42 (A) and lower CSF levels of ptau (B) or ptau/abeta42 (C), which remained significant only in A (-) subgroup. In addition, the associations with specific loci showed significant trends in APOE4 (-) subgroup, including rs1237999 (HIPPO, ENTOR, and MT), rs592297 (HIPPO, ENTOR, and MT), and rs3851179 (HIPPO, ENTOR, MT, and PC) (D).
