DNA methylation in the APOE genomic region is associated with cognitive function in African Americans
BACKGROUND: Genetic variations in apolipoprotein E (APOE) and proximal genes (PVRL2, TOMM40, and APOC1) are associated with cognitive function and dementia, particularly Alzheimer’s disease. Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation play a central role in the regulation of gene expression. Recen...
