A Diagnostic Model for Alzheimer's Disease Based on Blood Levels of Autophagy-Related Genes.

ABSTRACT: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease. The major problems that exist in the diagnosis of AD include the costly examinations and the high-invasive sampling tissue. Therefore, it would be advantageous to develop blood biomarkers. Because AD's pathological process is considered tightly related to autophagy; thus, a diagnostic model for AD based on ATGs may have more predictive accuracy than other models. We obtained GSE63060 dataset from the GEO database, ATGs from the HADb and screened 64 differentially expressed autophagy-related genes (DE-ATGs). We then applied them to Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses as well as DisGeNET and PaGenBase enrichment analyses. By using the univariate analysis, least absolute shrinkage and se
