Rare coding variants in PLCG2, ABI3 and TREM2 implicate microglialmediated innate immunity in Alzheimer’s disease

We identified rare coding variants associated with Alzheimer's disease in a three-stage case–control study of 85,133 subjects. In stage 1, we genotyped 34,174 samples using a whole-exome microarray. In stage 2, we tested associated variants (P < 1 × 10−4) in 35,962 independent samples using...
