IL15 and Stroke: Our genetic study sheds light on genes reported to be associated with neurological diseases including stroke, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s (F5, MAP1B, and BCAS3), with Alzheimer’s pathological hallmarks (ADAMTS12, IL15, and FHIT), or with an important function in the brain (PARD3, ELFN2, UBASH3B, SLIT3, and NSD3), and suggests that the genetic architecture of circulating total-tau may differ according to ancestry.
