Immune cell enrichment scores and pathway activity were evaluated using single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA), and enriched pathways were identified through Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA). Upstream regulatory associations were explored by constructing miRNA-mRNA and transcription factor regulatory networks, and correlations between the risk genes and established AD-related genes were assessed using public databases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>AD samples showed immune dysregulation, including reduced dendritic cell ssGSEA scores. All seven risk genes correlated with immune cell subsets and immunomodulatory molecules. Enrichment analysis revealed inflammatory pathways including NF-\u03baB, IL-17, TNF, MAPK, and Notch, suggesting potential links to neuroinflammation and neuronal signaling disruption. Upstream analysis identified 85 miRNAs and several transcription factor motifs annotated to HOXA13, ESRRA, and SNAI1\/2\/3. Correlation analysis further revealed associations between risk genes and AD-related genes, placing these genes within established AD pathological networks in an exploratory manner.<\/jats:p>\n
