Abstract

This mini-review explores the genetic architecture of Alzheimer's disease, highlighting the interplay between rare monogenic mutations and common polygenic risk factors. The article discusses key genes associated with early-onset Alzheimer's disease, genome-wide association studies, and emerging multi-omics approaches that contribute to understanding disease susceptibility and precision medicine strategies.
