Abstract excerpt
Evidence suggests that the genes involved in brain lipid homeostasis are of particular relevance for Alzheimer's disease (AD) etiology. Among these genes, that encoding paraoxonase 1 (PON1) has gained newfound interest from a public health perspective, as recent studies have suggested that PON1 L55M and Q192R genetic variants might affect individual susceptibility to environmental events, such as exposure to...
