Integrative Brain Transcriptome Analysis Links Complement Component 4 and<i>HSPA2</i>to the<i>APOE</i>ε2 Protective Effect in Alzheimer Disease
2020-11-24
Abstract excerpt
Mechanisms underlying the protective effect of apolipoprotein E ( APOE ) ε2 against Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are not well understood. We analyzed gene expression data derived from autopsied brains donated by 982 individuals including 135 APOE ε 2/ε 3 carriers. Complement pathway genes C4A and C4B were among the most significantly differentially expressed genes between ε 2/ε 3 AD cases and controls. We also identif...
