Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis(ALS) has traditionally been managed as a neuromuscular disorder. However, recent evidence suggests involvement of non-motor domains. This study aims to evaluate the impact of APOE and MAPT genotypes on the cognitive features of ALS.

Background: The recent European-ancestry based genome-wide association study (GWAS) of Alzheimer disease (AD) by Bellenguez2022 has identified 75 significant genetic loci, but only a few have been functionally mapped to effector gene level. Besides the large-scale RNA expression, protein and metabolite levels are key molecular traits bridging the genetic variants to AD risk, and thus we decided to integrate them into the genetic analysis to pinpoint key proteins and metabolites underlying AD etiology. Few studies have generated more than one layer of post-transcriptional phenotypes, limiting the scale of biological translation of disease modifying treatments.

Cholesterol is vital for nerve processes. Changes in cholesterol homeostasis lead to neurodegeneration and Alzheimer's disease (AD). In recent years, extensive research has confirmed the influential role of adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in managing AD.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating neurological disease with complex genetic etiology, yet most known loci were only identified from the late-onset type of European ancestry.
Method: We performed a two-stage genome-wide association study (GWAS) of AD totaling 6,878 Chinese and 487,511 European individuals.
Result: We demonstrated a shared genetic architecture between early- and late-onset AD.

Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Background: White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are commonly observed on MRI in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the molecular pathways underlying their relationships with the ATN biomarkers remain unclear. The aim of this study was to identify genetic variants that may modify the relationship between WMH and the ATN biomarkers.
Method: This genome-wide interaction study (GWIS) included individuals with AD, MCI, and normal cognition from ADNI (n = 1012).
