Abstract excerpt
Mutations in 3 genes, amyloid precursor protein (APP), presenilin 1 (PSEN1), and presenilin 2 (PSEN2), have been identified as causing a proportion of early-onset Alzheimer disease (eoAD) cases. A few PSEN mutations have also been previously detected in patients with frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). In order to evaluate the role of these genes in a clinical series of Finnish eoAD and FTLD patients, we...
