DNA glycosylase Neil3 leads to sex-specific differences in AD. Neil3 increases plaque deposition in female APP/PS1 mice. Neil3 promotes hippocampal neurogenesis and working memory in male APP/PS1 mice. Neil3-dependent DNA damage accumulation does not correlate with AD pathogenesis.

Based on current studies, the incidence of Ewing sarcoma (ES) varies significantly by race and ethnicity, with the disease being most common in patients of European ancestry. However, race/ethnicity has generally been self-reported rather than formally evaluated at a population level using DNA evidence. Additionally, mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of ES, yet there have been no reported studies of mitochondrial genetics in ES. Thus, we evaluated both the mitochondrial and nuclear ancestries of 420 pediatric ES patients in the United States using whole-genome sequencing.
