Lack of association of the two polymorphisms in alpha-2 macroglobulin with Alzheimer disease.

American journal of medical genetics - 1 Jun 2002

Poduslo S E, Shook B, Drigalenko E, Yin X

Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer disease is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by cognitive decline and distinct neuropathology. The gene for alpha-2 macroglobulin (A2M) on chromosome 12 has two polymorphisms that, in some cases, are associated with Alzheimer disease. We examined these two polymorphisms in our families in the DNA Bank (a collection of DNA samples from families with Alzheimer disease in Texas)....
