A multi-omic atlas of the human frontal cortex for aging and Alzheimer’s disease research

TL;DR: The systematic profiling of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex obtained from a subset of autopsied individuals enrolled in the Religious Orders Study or the Rush Memory and Aging Project, which are jointly designed prospective studies of aging and dementia with detailed, longitudinal cognitive phenotyping during life and a quantitative, structured neuropathologic examination after death, is initiated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants at 12q14 and 12q24 are associated with hippocampal volume

TL;DR: In this article, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of dementia-free persons (n = 9,232) identified 46 SNPs at four loci with P values of <4.0 × 10(-7).
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex differences in Alzheimer’s disease and common neuropathologies of aging

TL;DR: Postmortem data from 1453 persons who participated in one of two longitudinal community-based studies of older adults help elucidate the neuropathologic footprint of sex difference in AD and other common brain pathologies of aging.

A multi-omic atlas of the human frontal cortex for aging and Alzheimer's disease research

TL;DR: The systematic profiling of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex obtained from a subset of autopsied individuals enrolled in the Religious Orders Study or the Rush Memory and Aging Project, which are jointly designed and belong to a very few prospective studies of aging and dementia, is initiated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of APOE with tau-tangle pathology with and without β-amyloid.

TL;DR: The presence of APOE ε4 and ε2 alleles was not associated with PHF-tau tangles in the absence of β-amyloid, and the data provide additional evidence that PHf-t Tau tangle may reflect a pathologic process distinct from Alzheimer's disease.
