Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a large and growing public health problem. It is characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β peptides and abnormally phosphorylated tau proteins that are associated with cognitive decline and dementia. Much has been learned about the genomics of AD from linkage analyses and more recently, genome-wide association studies. Several but not all aspects of the genomic landscape are involved in amyloid-metabolism. The moderate concordance of disease among twins suggests other factors, potentially epigenomic factors, are related to AD. We are at the earliest stages of examining the relation of the epigenome to the clinical and pathologic phenotypes that characterize AD. Our literature review suggests that there is some evidence of age-related changes in human brain methylation. Unfortunately, studies of AD have been relatively small with limited coverage of methylation sites and microRNA, let alone other epigenomic marks. We are in the midst of two large studies of human brains including coverage of more than 420,000 autosomal cytosine-guanine dinucleotides (CGs) with the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation 450K BeadArray, and histone acetylation with chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing. We present descriptive data to help inform other researchers what to expect from these approaches in order to better design and power their studies. We then discuss future directions to inform on the epigenomic architecture of AD.
