Omics translation in AD: Glossary

Key Points

Introduction
Synapse and AD Knowledge Portal
  • Use your Synapse login credentials to access the Portal.

  • Use Synapser package to download data from the Portal.

Differential Expression Analysis
  • Validate metadata prior to data analysis.

  • Use function for repeated differential expression analysis in multiple comparisons.

Mouse-human alignment of transcriptomic signatures
  • AMP-AD gene modules represent major transcriptomic heterogeneity in AD.

  • Correlation of logFC is a practical approach for human-mouse alignment of AD-associated transcriptomic signatures.

Functional Alignment using AD Biological Domains
  • Functional signatures are a useful point of comparison between species.

  • Subsetting functions into associated Biological Domains allows for more granular comparisons.
