3.2 Genome wide association studies
The combines studies of GWAS of control, incipient, moderate and severe samples are differently identified the
gene expressions based on p-values. We have identified 12 genes that more significantly associated with
transcriptional regulation of cerebral cortex and is potential targets against AD. Using GWAS studies of these
genes which significantly involved in markers and is used for early stage detection of Alzheimer’s disease. The
PTN gene is polymorphism associates with risk of age onset of AD. The PTN SNPs of rs4420638 within APOC1
was strongly linked with PTN of AD of p-value in the logistic of p<0.05. The other genes such as TBC1D2B,
FAR2, LHCGR, EHD1, KCNA5, GPR22, WDFY3 and ITGBL1 genes also has significant SNPs that logistically
associated with AD (Table 4).

Using Pharmacogenomic properties of biomarkers prediction on based on gene-drug interaction. The PTN gene is
interacting with Ozone co-treated with Chlorine results in increased expression of PTN mRNA. The TBC1D2B is
strongly interacting with plant extracts results in increased expression of TBC1D2B mRNA to control AD. The
LHCGR gene is strongly interacting with Melatonin, resveratrol and Sodium Fluoride has increase expression of
mRNA to control the AD but the Particulate Matter are decreases the mRNA expression to regulate mRNA
expression to stop the development of brain cells to control AD. The KCNA5 gene is interacting with Acrolein
results in increased expression of KCNA5 gene that regulate the AD expression in transcriptional levels of
cerebral cortex. Another drug such as Rotenon also interacts with KCNA5 that inhibit the reaction of transcription
expression and stop ion gateway channels. Resveratrol affects the reaction geranylgeranylacetone results in
increased expression of KCNA5 protein. Zinc deficiency results in decreased expression of KCNA5 mRNA. The
WDFY3 gene is strongly interacting with APP protein modified form binds to Aluminum which results in
decreased expression of WDFY3 mRNA. Nanotubes, Carbon co-treated with calfactant results in increased
expression of WDFY3 protein. The overall results shows PTN, TBC1D1B, LHCGR, KCNA5 and WDFY5 are
Pharmacologically interacting with different drugs that potentially targets for AD treatment.
