Ontology Specific Alternative Splicing Changes in Alzheimer's Disease.

ABSTRACT: Alternative splicing (AS) is a common phenomenon and correlates with aging and aging-related disorders including Alzheimer's disease (AD). We aimed to systematically characterize AS changes in the cerebral cortex of 9-month-old APP/PS1 mice. The GSE132177 dataset was downloaded from GEO and ENA databases, aligned to the GRCm39 reference genome from ENSEMBL via STAR. Alternative 3'SS (A3SS), alternative 5'SS (A5SS), skipped exon (SE), retained intron (RI), and mutually exclusive exons (MXE) AS events were evaluated using rMATS, rmats2sashimiplot, and maser. Differential genes or transcripts were analyzed using the limma R package. Gene ontology analysis was performed with the clusterProfiler R package. A total of 60,705 raw counts of AS were identified, and 113 significant AS events were fi
