Compared with children carrying the GG allele, children with genotype GT or TT in a specific genetic variation (rs59007384 located in the nearby TOMM40 gene) had excess risk for worse fine motor function (Odds ratio (OR): 1.82; 95% Confidence interval (CI): 1.10-2.99; p = 0.019) and epilepsy (OR: 2.32; CI: 1.17-4.61; p = 0.016).
We investigated the association between TOMM40 rs10524523, age of onset, and memory performance in patients with the PSEN1 M146L mutation in a large familial Alzheimer's disease Calabrian kindred, with a wide variability of onset not attributable to APOE.
Because of the similarities between Alzheimer's disease and sporadic inclusion body myositis (s-IBM), and the importance of amyloid-β and mitochondrial changes in s-IBM, we investigated whether variation in poly-T repeat lengths in rs10524523 also influence susceptibility and age at onset in a cohort of 90 Caucasian s-IBM patients (55 males; age 69.1 ± 9.6).
Both allelic and genotypic associations of three SNPs (rs157580, rs2075650, and rs11556505) with LOAD risk were observed in the total sample as well as in the non- APOE ε4 carriers.
Our data provide no evidence to support an association of rs2075650 in TOMM40 with nAMD or PCV, suggesting that this gene is unlikely to be a major AMD and PCV susceptibility gene locus in the Chinese population.

Inside this region of 26.9 kb, LD (r2 ≥ 0.50) between TOMM40 (rs2075650) and APOE (rs429358) was observed in bvFTD</span> and in controls, but not in PPA.
The analysis of the discovery sample showed an association of TOMM40 single nucleotide polymorphisms with progression from MCI stage to AD (rs59007384 and rs11556510), as well as with a shorter time to progression from MCI status to AD (rs10119), though these results could not be replicated in independent series.

We found that two loci, chromosome 1p13.3 near CELSR2 and PSRC1 which contains rs646776, and 19q13.2 near TOMM40 and APOE which contains rs2075650, harbor risk alleles for CAAD.
Multivariate logistic regression analysis with age and body mass index (BMI) as covariates revealed a significant association between OSA status and SNPs rs157580, rs405509, rs769455 and rs7412.
To interrogate a poly-T variant (rs10524523, '523) in <i>TOMM40</i>, a gene adjacent to the <i>APOE</i> gene on chromosome 19, in older persons with <i>APOE</i> ε3/3 homozygosity for association with cognitive decline, the clinical hallmark of Alzheimer disease (AD).
The very long (VL) poly-T variant at rs10524523 ("523") of the TOMM40 gene may hasten the onset of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) and induce more profound cognitive impairment compared with the short (S) poly-T variant.
Both allelic and genotypic associations of three SNPs (rs157580, rs2075650, and rs11556505) with LOAD risk were observed in the total sample as well as in the non- APOE ε4 carriers.
A variable-length poly-T variant in intron 6 of the TOMM40 gene, rs10524523, is associated with risk and age-of-onset of sporadic (late-onset) Alzheimer's disease.

We investigated the genomic region spanning the Translocase of the Outer Mitochondrial Membrane 40-kD (TOMM40) and Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genes, that has been associated with the risk and age of onset of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) to determine whether a highly polymorphic, intronic poly-T within this region (rs10524523; hereafter, 523) affects expression of the APOE and TOMM40 genes.
We conclude that in the carriers of TOMM40-APOE haplotypes comprising E4 allele, the TOMM40 rs10524523 allele does not play substantial role in establishing LOAD risk.
A variable poly-T length polymorphism at rs10524523, within intron 6 of the translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane (TOMM40) gene, has been shown to influence age of onset in LOAD, with very long (VL) poly-T length associated with earlier disease onset, and short poly-T length associated with later onset.
