Complex genetic interactions affect susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease risk in the BIN1 and MS4A6A loci
Journal Article GeroScience · January 1, 2025 Genetics is the second strongest risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) after age. More than 70 loci have been implicated in AD susceptibility so far, and the genetic architecture of AD entails both additive and nonadditive contributions from these loci. ...

Journal Article Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association · December 1, 2024 BACKGROUND: The Alzheimer's Association reports that more than two-thirds of the approximately 5 million Alzheimer's disease (AD) cases in the USA are women. With studies suggesting a high genetic heritability for AD, gaining a better understanding of the ...

Journal Article International journal of molecular sciences · November 2024 Physical activity (PA) is a modifiable factor in mitigating/preventing Alzheimer's disease (AD). It is crucial to identify the conditions under which PA's effects on AD risk would be beneficial. This study aims to gain insights into pleiotropic predisposit ... Full text CiteRecent Grants
