Blood Genome-Wide Transcriptional Profiles Reflect Broad Molecular Impairments and Strong Blood-Brain Links in Alzheimer's Disease
30 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
To date, little is known regarding the etiology and disease mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). There is a general urgency for novel approaches to advance AD research. In this study, we analyzed blood RNA from female patients with advanced AD and matched healthy controls using genome-wide gene expression microarrays. Our data showed significant alterations in 3,944 genes (≥2-fold, FDR ≤1%) in AD whole blood,...
