Researchers have discovered new changes in blood samples associated with Alzheimer’s disease. A new international study was conducted on disease-discordant Finnish twin pairs: one sibling suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and the other being cognitively healthy. The researchers utilised the latest genome-wide methods to examine the twins’ blood samples for any disease-related differences in epigenetic marks which are sensitive to changes in environmental factors. These differences between the siblings were discovered in multiple different genomic regions.
