The two GWASs by Chen et al[6] in Japanese population and Nakata, I. et al[28] in the Caucasian population also indicted that CETP rs3764261 conferred increase risk for advanced AMD (OR = 1.19 and 1.12,respectively), but it did not reach the genome-wide significant (P = 7.4 × 10−7 and 1.41 × 10−3, respectively). Here, CETP is linked to age-related macular degeneration.
