Scientists from Neurodegeneration Therapeutics used RNA-seq to compare microRNAs found in Alzheimer’s brain samples and controls. They identified 55 up-regulated genes and 191 down-regulated genes in the Alzheimer’s samples. PippinHT was used for small RNA size selection ahead of sequencing on an Illumina NextSeq500.
