Abstract in brief

  • Epigenetics involves reversible changes in gene expression, like DNA methylation and chromatin structure, which can be inherited during cell division and are linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD).
  • The article by Mastroeni et al. discusses evidence that epigenetic changes play a role in the development of AD and suggests using epigenomic techniques to discover new molecular pathways involved in the disease.
  • The authors argue that combining genetic and epigenetic research approaches, especially when studying postmortem brain tissue, can lead to a better understanding of AD causes and potentially inform new treatments.]
