Abstract
Abstract: We examined whether the A allele of CREBRF rs373863828, which is common in Samoans but rare in non-Pacific Islanders, predicts better cognition. Samoan interviewers interviewed participants who were 60 years and older, lived in the Independent State of Samoa, and had four Samoan grandparents. The AA genotype significantly predicted older Samoans’ better subjective and objective cognition; it also contributed 5.9 times more than APOE to subjective cognition and 12.3 times more than APOE to objective cognition, in effect-size analyses. Since CREBRF operates in the universal CREB system, the findings could inform general aging-cognition resilience.
