Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. To date, more than 200 mutations in three genes have been identified as cause of early-onset autosomal dominant inherited AD. The aim of this study was to characterize the mutation spectrum and describe genotype-phenotype correlations in Serbian patients with positive family history of AD or/and early-onset AD. We performed a genetic screening for...
