Even though this number lumps e4 and e2 folks together, e2 people do not have a 0% risk for Alzheimer’s nor do e4 people have a 100% chance.

Or to make any really meaningful prediction about diabetes at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We then got to talking about Alzheimer’s. Turns out his family tree is littered with Alzheimer’s on both his mother’s and father’s side. He ran into a similar problem–23andMe doesn’t report anything for Alzheimer’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here the situation is a bit different than for diabetes. There are a couple of DNA markers that can tell us a lot about our future risk for late onset Alzheimer’s. It just so happens that 23andMe doesn’t report on them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These markers deal with the APOE gene. This gene comes in three common versions: e2, e3, and e4. People with two copies of the e4 version are 15 times more likely to develop Alzheimer’s and if they do end up with the disease, it tends to come earlier. (One copy of e4 increases your risk about 3 times.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With a little help from my colleague, I decided to dig a bit deeper into Alzheimer’s and see what I could figure out from what 23andMe did provide. Turns out I can figure out a whole lot about my APOE status. And that I can help other people figure out more from their results too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two markers (also called \u003ca href=\"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/About/primer/snps.html\">SNP\u003c/a>s) that deal with APOE and Alzheimer’s are rs429358 and rs7412.

Even though this isn’t usually enough to tell whether you have the dreaded e4 version or not, in my case it was. I almost certainly do not have any versions of e4 (yay!).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>See, my results at rs7412 are TT*. If I am interpreting these results correctly, this means I almost certainly have two copies of the e2 version of the APOE gene. In terms of my Alzheimer’s risk this is great news as being e2/e2 actually lowers your risk for getting the disease. (There is a chance I could be e1 but this doesn’t seem to be a very common version at all.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course this doesn’t mean I won’t get Alzheimer’s…I still might. After all, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.alz.org/alzheimers_disease_causes_risk_factors.asp#familyhistory\">risk \u003c/a>for someone over 85 getting Alzheimer’s is almost 50%. Even though this number lumps e4 and e2 folks together, e2 people do not have a 0% risk for Alzheimer’s nor do e4 people have a 100% chance. People with e4 are just more likely to have Alzheimer’s than e2 people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It might help to think about getting Alzheimer’s like drawing an inside straight in poker. Everyone might do it but people who are playing with wildcards are more likely to get it. These are the e4 folks. But it isn’t a for sure thing…you still may not draw the straight even with deuces wild.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Same thing with not having e4. Now I am less likely to draw that inside straight because there are no wild cards but it can still happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because I was TT at rs7412, my case was pretty easy to figure out.

They need to make sure that potential customers have a good idea about what they can and can't get from these sorts of genetic tests. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, right now a prominent feature is a box that lets the viewer search for the diseases 23andMe “covers” along with a list of popular topics. People may come away thinking 23andMe has useful tests for most of the diseases listed. They don't.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They have some useful tests for a few, rare genetic diseases. But the bulk of their tests are not at all useful yet in figuring out someone’s risk of getting a certain disease. What they have for the more complicated diseases is a way for people to compare their DNA to various studies in the scientific literature. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe a study was done that found a DNA difference involved in diabetes. Customers can see whether or not they have this difference too but this tells them nothing about their risk for diabetes. It gives just one piece of a giant puzzle. They are not getting any meaningful results that can predict their risk for diabetes. This box should probably be heavily modified or even eliminated. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, the website really should be organized into different sections that are labeled by how medically useful they are to the customer rather than by how strong the DNA study was scientifically. Maybe they could split their tests into three sections. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first would be carrier testing. These tests can tell you if you have a hidden genetic disease that you could pass down to your child if your partner has it as well. This would get high marks for reliability, scientific validity, and usefulness. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next section would be more fun related stuff. This would have ancestry and some of the traits testing. It would be able to tell you what your earwax is like, where your mother's, mother's, mother's, etc. mother came from, the odds that your child might have blue eyes, etc. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The final section would include the bulk of what is tested. These are the tests that compare your results to results in the scientific literature for complex diseases. Many of these tests would score high in scientific validity but get no points for usefulness. As I said before, most if not all of these tests will not give you an accurate risk assessment for the diseases they look at. Period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There isn’t any reason these results shouldn’t be included, though. Maybe people enjoy seeing the results or want to use them to watch progress in the field or whatever. But the companies need to say upfront that these tests are not that useful for determining risk. This needs to be obvious enough that someone wouldn't buy the product just for that test. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a last point, 23andMe (and all genetic testing companies) need to be much more upfront about what their tests can offer based on race. The carrier tests are probably pretty good for most everyone (although they may miss any nonwhite versions of many diseases). The fun section might be pretty useful to the nonwhite world for ancestry but probably less so for traits as they have mostly been determined for people of European descent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the rest of the tests they offer that deal with more complex diseases have only been validated for white people. This needs to be explicit on their website so nonwhite people know they aren't getting as much bang for their buck. Buyer of color beware!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These kinds of changes will go a long way towards making these sites more transparent to potential customers.

In essence, even though they are pretty good about disclaimers, they aren't good enough. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the first things the company should probably do is to reorganize the first page that potential customers see. They need to make sure that potential customers have a good idea about what they can and can't get from these sorts of genetic tests. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, right now a prominent feature is a box that lets the viewer search for the diseases 23andMe “covers” along with a list of popular topics. People may come away thinking 23andMe has useful tests for most of the diseases listed. They don't.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They have some useful tests for a few, rare genetic diseases. But the bulk of their tests are not at all useful yet in figuring out someone’s risk of getting a certain disease. What they have for the more complicated diseases is a way for people to compare their DNA to various studies in the scientific literature. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe a study was done that found a DNA difference involved in diabetes. Customers can see whether or not they have this difference too but this tells them nothing about their risk for diabetes. It gives just one piece of a giant puzzle. They are not getting any meaningful results that can predict their risk for diabetes. This box should probably be heavily modified or even eliminated. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, the website really should be organized into different sections that are labeled by how medically useful they are to the customer rather than by how strong the DNA study was scientifically. Maybe they could split their tests into three sections. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first would be carrier testing. These tests can tell you if you have a hidden genetic disease that you could pass down to your child if your partner has it as well. This would get high marks for reliability, scientific validity, and usefulness. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next section would be more fun related stuff. This would have ancestry and some of the traits testing. It would be able to tell you what your earwax is like, where your mother's, mother's, mother's, etc. mother came from, the odds that your child might have blue eyes, etc. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The final section would include the bulk of what is tested. These are the tests that compare your results to results in the scientific literature for complex diseases. Many of these tests would score high in scientific validity but get no points for usefulness. As I said before, most if not all of these tests will not give you an accurate risk assessment for the diseases they look at. Period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There isn’t any reason these results shouldn’t be included, though. Maybe people enjoy seeing the results or want to use them to watch progress in the field or whatever. But the companies need to say upfront that these tests are not that useful for determining risk. This needs to be obvious enough that someone wouldn't buy the product just for that test. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a last point, 23andMe (and all genetic testing companies) need to be much more upfront about what their tests can offer based on race. The carrier tests are probably pretty good for most everyone (although they may miss any nonwhite versions of many diseases). The fun section might be pretty useful to the nonwhite world for ancestry but probably less so for traits as they have mostly been determined for people of European descent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the rest of the tests they offer that deal with more complex diseases have only been validated for white people. This needs to be explicit on their website so nonwhite people know they aren't getting as much bang for their buck. Buyer of color beware!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These kinds of changes will go a long way towards making these sites more transparent to potential customers. And they may even keep the FDA at bay. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> 37.7749295 -122.4194155\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/quest/7704/more-than-just-the-facts","authors":["6177"],"categories":["quest_4"],"tags":["quest_43","quest_848","quest_1081","quest_1188","quest_1193","quest_1195"],"label":"quest"},"quest_6979":{"type":"posts","id":"quest_6979","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"quest","id":"6979","score":null,"sort":[1280772255000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"here-comes-the-fda","title":"Here Comes the FDA","publishDate":1280772255,"format":"standard","headTitle":"QUEST | KQED Science","labelTerm":{"site":"quest"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"left\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/FileVaccineBySandraRugio.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2010/08/fda.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003cem>Maybe the FDA could set up a sort of Consumer Reports for genetic testing.\u003c/em>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last few years, a bunch of companies have sprouted up that offer genetic testing over the Internet.
