Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Genetics studies can identify drug targets that counteract the effects of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE*4) on Alzheimer's disease (AD) but have remained limited in power and crucially did not assess genetic findings with regard to APOE*4's cell-type-specific impact on pathobiology. METHODS: We conducted a novel APOE*4-stratified genome-wide association study (GWAS) of AD (N = 447,669) and...
