Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: APOE is the largest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but there is a substantial polygenic component. Polygenic risk scores (PRS) can summarize small effects across the genome but may obscure differential risk across molecular processes and pathways that contribute to heterogeneity of disease presentation. OBJECTIVE: We examined polygenic risk impacting specific AD-associated pathways...
