Abstract excerpt
Linkage studies have implicated a broad region on chromosome 10q in Alzheimer's disease (AD). A recent genetic association study has provided evidence that polymorphism in the gene encoding alpha-3 catenin (CTNNA3, referred to previously as VR22 and also known as alpha-T catenin) may underlie linkage signals. Here, to investigate this finding, markers that previously exhibited maximum evidence of association have...
