Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The gene encoding catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) has been suggested as a candidate for Alzheimer-related psychosis (AD-P) susceptibility, and an association between AD-P and a functional valine to methionine polymorphism has been reported. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the genetic contribution of other COMT variants to the risk of AD-P. METHODS: Two hundred and forty-six AD...
