Environment‐susceptible genetic loci for imaging‐based preclinical markers of ADRD, and the influence of modifiable risk factors
Our study identifies novel genome-wide loci that interact with environmental factors and are associated with preclinical MRI markers of AD. These findings underscore the impact of modifiable lifestyle factors on genetic risk, offering potential avenues for preventive and therapeutic strategies. Ongoing efforts aim to replicate these findings in well-characterized cohorts, including the Framingham Heart Study and the San Antonio Family Heart Study of predominantly Mexican-Americans.
