Venn diagram analysis showed that AD and VaD shared 21 transcription factors (IRF1, ZFX, REST, CTCF, PPARG, CREB1, YY1, ARNT, STAT1, GATA1, GATA2, GATA3, SREBF1, SREBF2, RELA, FOXA2, MYB, E2F4, JUN, SRF, ESR1) whereas AD and FTD shared one transcription factor, EGR1. Here, STAT1 is linked to Alzheimer disease.
