<i>APOE</i> stratified genome-wide association studies provide novel insights into the genetic etiology of Alzheimers’s disease
2025-05-09
Abstract excerpt
Among the more than 90 identified genetic risk loci for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and related dementias, the apolipoprotein E gene ( APOE ) ɛ2/ɛ3/ɛ4 polymorphisms remains the longstanding benchmark for genetic disease risk with a consistently large effect across studies 1–10 . Despite this massive signal, the exact mechanisms for how ɛ4 increases and for how ɛ2 decreases dementia risk is not well-under...
