  1. Step by step: towards a better understanding of the genetic architecture of Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Molecular psychiatry 2023-05-02 Genetics

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is considered to have a large genetic component.

  2. A large-scale genome-wide cross-trait analysis reveals shared genetic architecture between Alzheimer's disease and gastrointestinal tract disorders

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 83 out of 100. Communications biology 2022-07-18 Genetics

    Consistent with the concept of the gut-brain phenomenon, observational studies suggest a relationship between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and gastrointestinal tract (GIT) disorders; however, their underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

  3. Sex differences in the genetic architecture of cognitive resilience to Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Brain : a journal of neurology 2022-07-01 Genetics

    It is well established that there are sex differences in response to Alzheimer's disease pathology, and growing evidence suggests that genetic factors may contribute to these differences.

  4. Brain scans from 21,297 individuals reveal the genetic architecture of hippocampal subfield volumes

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 57 out of 100. Molecular psychiatry 2018-10-02 Genetics

    The hippocampus is a heterogeneous structure, comprising histologically distinguishable subfields.
