Conserved brain myelination networks are altered in Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases
Open accessAbstract
Introduction: Comparative transcriptome analyses in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative proteinopathies can uncover both shared and distinct disease pathways. Methods: We analyzed 940 brain transcriptomes including patients with AD, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP; a primary tauopathy), and control subjects. Results: We identified transcriptional coexpression networks implicated in myelination, which were lower in PSP temporal cortex (TCX) compared with AD. Some of these associations were retained even after adjustments for brain cell population changes. These TCX myelination network structures were preserved in cerebellum but they were not differentially expressed in cerebellum between AD and PSP. Myelination networks were downregulated in both AD and PSP, when compared with control TCX samples. Discussion: Downregulation of myelination networks may underlie both PSP and AD pathophysiology, but may be more pronounced in PSP. These data also highlight conservation of transcriptional networks across brain regions and the influence of cell type changes on these networks.

In the citing paper
“Results from RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of human postmortem brain tissue further reinforce the importance of microglial and inflammatory mechanisms in AD pathogenesis, among other pathways (Allen et al., 2018; Conway et al., 2018; McKenzie et al., 2017; Patrick et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2016, 2019; Zhang et al., 2013).”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“independent analyses of RNA-seq from the Mayo and MSSM cohorts previously identified AD-associated coexpression modules enriched for oligodendrocyte expression signatures (Allen et al., 2018; McKenzie et al., 2017), and these gene sets significantly overlapped with consensus cluster D (Figure 1C).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
