Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex disease with the possible involvement of several genes. Genetic studies on sporadic late-onset AD have determined APOE*4 to be the major risk factor. Members of the synuclein gene family are potential candidates for the risk of AD. The persyn gene (gamma-synuclein) has recently been characterized and a common polymorphism (Glu110Val) has been identified. In this study we...
