Increased DNA Copy Number Variation Mosaicism in Elderly Human Brain by Darine Villela, Claudia K. Suemoto, Renata Leite, Carlos Augusto Pasqualucci, Lea T. Grinberg, Peter Pearson, Carla Rosenberg

“…Previous reports have shown that the genome of neuronal cells displays somatic genomic mosaicism including DNA copy number variations (CNVs). CNVs represent a significant source of genetic variation in the human genome and have been implicated in several disorders and complex traits, representing a potential mechanism that contributes to neuronal diversity and the etiology of several neurological diseases and provides new insights into the normal, complex functions of the brain. …”
