Chunk #58 — Results — Specific genetic variants confer a distinctive cell composition profile

Source
Genetic variants associated with Alzheimer's disease confer different cerebral cortex cell-type population structure.

yes

Text

A variety of genetic variants increase risk of LOAD; however, it is unclear if the cellular mechanisms are the same across these distinct risk factors. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that distinct genetic causes of LOAD have characteristic cellular population signatures.
