Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, whereas myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease. Despite their distinct clinical manifestations, both disorders involve immune dysregulation and cholinergic dysfunction, and epidemiological evidence for an association remains inconclusive. Here, we investigated the genetic architecture underlying the AD-MG relationship using...
