Genetic vulnerability following traumatic brain injury: the role of apolipoprotein E.

Molecular pathology : MP - 1 Jun 2003

Nathoo N, Chetty R, van Dellen J R, Barnett G H

Abstract excerpt

Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is thought to be responsible for the transportation of lipids within the brain, maintaining structural integrity of the microtubule within the neurone, and assisting with neural transmission. Possession of the APOE epsilon4 allele has also been shown to influence neuropathological findings in patients who die from traumatic brain injury, including the accumulation of amyloid beta protein....
