Traumatic Brain Injury‐associated gene network‐based prediction and population‐based validation identifies doxycycline as a repurposable medicine for Alzheimer’s Disease

We demonstrated that combining network-based predictions and large real-world patient data observations can be used to identify potential repurposable drugs for AD based on combined AD-TBI associated genes within the human protein interactome. This has led to identifying doxycycline as a candidate treatment for preventing AD.

Abstract

We demonstrated that combining network-based predictions and large real-world patient data observations can be used to identify potential repurposable drugs for AD based on combined AD-TBI associated genes within the human protein interactome. This has led to identifying doxycycline as a candidate treatment for preventing AD.
