of mutations (e.g., alleles leading to altered protein function) in a gene weights the influence between pairs of genes. Overall, these combinatorial approaches, coupled with the increasing accessibility of GWAS and NGS data across multiple domains provide the means to the joint effect of genetic, epigenetic, transcriptomic, and proteomic factors on biochemical pathways related to AD susceptibility.
