Abstract excerpt

Genetic factors for inter-individual variation in cognition have been arousing great interest among researchers. Among the many associated genes, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and apolipoprotein E (APOE), as two of the most frequently studied, might be good prospects for cognitive genetics. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate both the isolated and cooperative effect of BDNF and APOE on...
