Identification of novel modifiers of Aβ toxicity by transcriptomic analysis in the fruitfly

The strongest risk factor for developing Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is age. Here, we study the relationship between ageing and AD using a systems biology approach that employs a Drosophila (fruitfly) model of AD in which the flies overexpress the human Aβ(42) peptide. We identified 712 genes that...
