Abstract excerpt

The prion protein Met129Val polymorphism has recently been related to human long-term memory with carriers of either the 129MM or the 129MV genotype recalling 17% more words than 129(VV) carriers at 24h following learning. Here, we sampled genotype differences in retrieval-related brain activity at 30min and 24h following learning. Furthermore, genotype groups were compared regarding grey matter concentrations...
