Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that is the most common form of dementia in the elderly and is characterized by progressive memory loss and cognitive dysfunction. Although the pathogenetic mechanism of AD is still unknown, genetic variants play a critical role in the pathogenesis of AD. Increasing evidence has suggested that noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) may be associated with the...
