Background: Obesity and ageing individually pose significant challenges to global public health, leading to preventable deaths. With an increasing geriatric population due to improved medical interventions, the intersection of these health issues becomes a critical concern worldwide. Both developed and developing countries grapple with the consequences of obesity, a major risk factor for various conditions like cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dementia, and neuropsychiatric diseases.

Using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) might offer insights into rare genetic variants associated with healthy aging and extreme longevity (EL), potentially pointing to useful therapeutic targets. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide association study using WGS data from the Long Life Family Study and identified a novel longevity-associated variant rs6543176 in the SLC9A2 gene. This SNP also showed a significant association with reduced hypertension risk and an increased, though not statistically significant, cancer risk.

Background: Cardio and cerebrovascular risk factors (CVRFs) increase the risk of cerebrovascular disease and clinical Alzheimer's Disease (AD), and over 70% of the patients with AD coincident cerebrovascular pathology. We previously found that FMNL2 interacts with a burden score of hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, and body mass index (BMI) by altering the normal astroglial-vascular mechanisms that underly amyloid clearance. Stroke, defined by history of a clinical stroke or brain imaging, is a moderately robust risk factor for AD and dementia.

Background: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a validated risk locus for developing late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). ACE1 controls blood pressure through the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), but it is also present and acts locally in the brain. Hypertension is associated with an increased risk for developing AD, and people taking select RAS-targeting therapeutics have reduced incidence of AD.
