Alzheimer's disease is marked by a loss of functional neurons in the brain. But what causes this loss? Through single-cell genome sequencing, researchers at Boston Children's Hospital, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and the Broad Institute show that people with Alzheimer's have an abundance of newly acquired mutations in their neurons -; more than people of the same age without Alzheimer's, and enough to disable genes important to brain function.

A new study by Harvard-affiliated researchers finds that patients with Alzheimer’s disease have both more and different somatic mutations — alterations in DNA — in their brain cells than people without Alzheimer’s disease.

An abundance of newly acquired mutations in the mutations that occur at an accelerated speed is a telling pattern of Alzheimer's disease, researchers report.
