Machine learning prediction and tau-based screening identifies potential Alzheimer’s disease genes relevant to immunity

Jessica Binder et al. developed a machine learning model to discover potential drug targets for Alzheimer’s disease. They validated their 20 top candidates in several in vitro models, and highlight FRRS1, CTRAM, SCGB3A1, FAM92B/CIBAR2, and TMEFF2 as potential AD risk genes.
