Despite that the biological relevance of the six shared genes needs to be interpreted carefully, the strongest significant cis-eQTL effects in the AD dataset were on CR1 (rs3818361, p = 6.14 × 10−139; rs6656401, p = 2.35 × 10−137), ZNF284 (rs2061333, p = 2.79 × 10−25), CR2 (rs3818361, p = 8.13 × 10−23), IL17RC (rs1552244, p = 1.03 × 10−21), and MRPL39 (rs2298369, p = 6.39 × 10−21) (Table 1 and Supplementary table S1). This evidence concerns the gene CR2 and Alzheimer disease.
