Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Differences Between Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease and Cognitively Normal Controls in Human Frontal Cortex
30 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
Evidence supports a role for epigenetic mechanisms in the pathogenesis of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), but little has been done on a genome-wide scale to identify potential sites involved in disease. This study investigates human postmortem frontal cortex genome-wide DNA methylation profiles between 12 LOAD and 12 cognitively normal age- and gender-matched subjects. Quantitative DNA methylation is...
