Abstract excerpt
In our study, we analyzed the coding and promoter regions of the PIN1 gene in a group of 111 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients looking for a possible genotype-phenotype correlation. The presence of SNPs - which could affect and modify the clinical phenotype of AD patients was also investigated. We identified two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at positions -842 (G-->C) and -667 (C-->T) in the promoter...
