In a study published in Nature Communications, Mayo Clinic researchers have identified specific DNA-level changes in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Using advanced biological analysis, the team mapped alterations in the brain's regulatory landscape that may help explain why Alzheimer's presents and progresses differently from person to person. The findings could also open new avenues for understanding other neurodegenerative diseases.
