Abstract excerpt
The present study examined the influence of genetic polymorphisms in the apolipoprotein (APOE) and the butyrylcholinesterase (BCHE) gene on GC secretion, cognition and personality in 66 healthy older adults. These particular variables were chosen given that they have been shown to be associated with human stress (i.e.stress markers). Measures included basal serum GC levels and cognitive scores on declarative...
