मुख्य बातें
- The largest genetic study of Alzheimer's disease so far has mapped 127 regions of human DNA linked to risk, 48 of them never identified before.
- Drawing on genetic data from about 2.8 million people, including more than 183,000 with Alzheimer's, the research published in Nature points strongly to the brain's immune cells, called microglia, and to several types of neurons.
- The findings also suggest common genetic variants explain about 16% of differences in risk between people, far more than earlier estimates — a research milestone, not a new test or treatment.
