Abstract excerpt
In this study, the relationship between lipid profiles of sera and apolipoprotein E (apo E) gene polymorphism was investigated in 35 patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 29 healthy people. Apo E genotypes and allele frequencies of the AD patient group were: apo E2/3, 2 (5.7 percent); apo E2...
