Cell-type-specific Transcriptomic-wide Association Studies Detected 91 Independent Risk Genes for Alzheimer’s Disease Dementia

2025-05-28

Abstract excerpt

Existing TWASs of AD dementia typically use a single statistical method to identify cell-type-specific risk genes. Here we sought to improve on existing approaches and utilized an omnibus xWAS pipeline to integrate snRNA-seq dataset (n=415) of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and the latest GWAS data of AD dementia to detect cell-type-specific risk genes. We identified 223 cell-type-specific TWAS risk genes...
