Increased <i>APOEε4</i> expression is associated with reactive A1 astrocytes and the difference in Alzheimer Disease risk from diverse ancestral backgrounds

2020-03-11

Abstract excerpt

APOEε4 African local genomic ancestry (LA) confers less risk for Alzheimer disease (AD) relative to European LA (LA) carriers. Single nucleus RNA sequencing from AD- APOEε4/4 frontal cortex found European LA carriers have a 1.45-fold greater APOEε4 expression (p< 1.8 E10 −313 ) and are associated with a unique A1 reactive astrocyte cluster. This suggests a potential mechanism for the increased risk for AD seen...
