Protein translation deregulation and viral exposures, including SARS-CoV-2, have been implicated in increased AD risk. Genes such as YIF1A, PABPC4, and MRPS27, which are involved in mRNA translation and protein folding have been linked to neurodegeneration and host responses to SARS-CoV-2.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      This study investigates the association of three genetic variants, rs7945723G&gt;A\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">,<\/jats:italic>\n                      rs6587A&gt;G, and rs6831A&gt;G, respectively correlated with\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">YIF1A<\/jats:italic>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">PABPC4,<\/jats:italic>\n                      and\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">MRPS27<\/jats:italic>\n                      , with AD, and explored their expression in COVID-19 samples to assess potential shared pathways.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A KASP genotyping assay was performed on 127 AD patients and 250 controls.
