These structural changes were positively associated with the expression levels of genes such as ABCA7, SORCS1, SORL1, PILRA, PFDN1, PLXNA4, TRIP4, and CD2AP, while they were negatively associated with the expression levels of genes such as CD33, PLCG2, APOE, and ECHDC3 across the clinical AD spectrum. The gene discussed is PILRA; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
