A multi-omic atlas of the human frontal cortex for aging and Alzheimer’s disease research
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
We initiated the systematic profiling of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex obtained from a subset of autopsied individuals enrolled in the Religious Orders Study (ROS) or the Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP), 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. They include over 3,322 subjects. Here, we outline the first generation of data including genome-wide genotypes (n=2,090), whole genome sequencing (n=1,179), DNA methylation (n=740), chromatin immunoprecipitation with sequencing using an anti-Histone 3 Lysine 9 acetylation (H3K9Ac) antibody (n=712), RNA sequencing (n=638), and miRNA profile (n=702). Generation of other omic data including ATACseq, proteomic and metabolomics profiles is ongoing. Thanks to its prospective design and recruitment of older, non-demented individuals, these data can be repurposed to investigate a large number of syndromic and quantitative neuroscience phenotypes. The many subjects that are cognitively non-impaired at death also offer insights into the biology of the human brain in older non-impaired individuals.

Early EWAS identified differentially methylated regions in genes including ANK1 and BIN1, suggesting that epigenetic modifications may converge on biological pathways previously implicated by genetic studies.
“Early epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) identified differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in genes including ankyrin 1 (ANK1) and BIN1, suggesting that epigenetic modifications may converge on biological pathways previously implicated by genetic studies124,152.”

The References section cites an earlier study titled “Alzheimer’s disease: early alterations in brain DNA methylation at ANK1, BIN1, RHBDF2 and other loci,” and Technical Validation says methylation findings were replicated. But this atlas does not itself state that the findings were differentially methylated regions or draw the proposed connection to pathways implicated by genetic studies. (LLM, conf=0.77)

The Background & Summary describes multi-omic data from ROSMAP dorsolateral prefrontal cortex tissue and a measure of each participant’s cognitive-decline trajectory (page not provided). It does not report using those data to identify Alzheimer’s disease subtypes with distinct cognitive trajectories. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
