Abstract
Identifying Alzheimer's disease (AD) subtypes is essential for AD diagnosis and treatment. We integrated multiomics data from brain tissues of the ROSMAP and MSBB studies using a subspace merging algorithm and identified two AD patient clusters with notable cognitive and AD pathology differences. Analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in brain and blood samples pinpointed the LDLR gene as a potential blood biomarker linked to brain gene expression changes. Furthermore, we conducted PheWAS analysis on All of Us Project's EHR and WGS dataset for 105 eQTLs associated with the DEGs and revealed significant associations between these eQTLs and several phenotypes, shedding light on potential regulatory roles of these genes in diverse physiological processes. Our study successfully integrated multiomics data and proposes LDLR as a candidate blood biomarker for AD subtyping. The identified phenotypic signatures provide valuable insights on molecular mechanisms underlying AD heterogeneity, paving the way for personalized AD treatment.
