Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in three diabetes-related genes (SIRT1, PPARD, PGC-1alpha) were investigated with a case-control approach. To examine the genetic association of those genes with Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, we used the TaqMan technique to genotype five SNP sites for SIRT1, six for PPARD and eight for the PGC-1alpha gene, in 326 Finnish AD cases and 463 controls and conducted a single...
