A study led by the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) has revealed the mechanism behind the link between a diet high in saturated fats and Alzheimer's disease. The research focused on how this kind of diet affects certain molecules found in the blood and in other tissues such as the brain that act as markers and regulators of the disease.

Researchers Develop SCENT Method to Map Enhancer-Gene Links in DiseaseResearchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital have developed a statistical method called SCENT (single-cell enhancer target gene mapping) to establish links between regulatory elements and genes, allowing them to pinpoint probable causal gene loci for both common and rare diseases. The method uses multimodal single-cell data and has been applied to various human tissues.
