SUCLG2 identified as both a determinator of CSF Aβ1–42 levels and an attenuator of cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: Functional microglia experiments showed that SUCLG2 was involved in clearance of Aβ1-42 and Clinically, rs62256378 was associated with rate of cognitive decline in AD dementia patients and an interaction between APOE genotype and rs62 256378 was detected.

Evidence that common variation in NEDD9 is associated with susceptibility to late-onset Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: A large scale, multi-tiered association study testing 4692 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) identified a SNP within a putative transcription factor binding site in the NEDD9 gene (neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down-regulated), that shows good evidence of association with disease risk in four out of five LOAD samples, implicate NEDd9 as a novel susceptibility gene for LOAD and possibly PD.
