Interestingly, CRTC1 mRNA expression showed a trend to be inversely correlated with Prom1 methylation levels (r Spearman = −0.949, p = 0.051) in the control group; meanwhile, no significant correlation was found between methylation and expression among AD patients (r Spearman = −0.287, p = 0.490). mRNA levels of CRTC1 downstream target genes are altered in Alzheimer’s disease hippocampus We also wanted to test whether CRTC1 -dependent genes were also dysregulated in our set of AD hippocampal samples.
