Development of Alzheimer’s disease pathology is contributed from oligodendrocytes.

UConn School of Medicine Professor and Chair of Neuroscience Riqiang Yan, Associate Professor of Neuroscience Xiangyou Hu, and their colleagues suggest a big data approach in the Nov. 17 issue of Molecular Degeneration. Collecting data on oligodendrocytes in systems biology research—those studies that look at large numbers of cells and try to piece together the relationships between genes, proteins, and the health of the overall system—could be a valuable direction for identifying new gene targets for understanding Alzheimer’s pathogenesis and therapy.
