Our results show a negative genetic correlation for the ventricular measures LVID and LVM and AD, pointing to antagonist pleiotropic effects of shared genes by AD and LV cardiac measures, the main known functions of which are related to apoptosis (CASP8, CASP10, CFLAR, PHIP) and neurotransmission (GABRR1). This evidence concerns the gene CASP10 and Alzheimer disease.
