Effect of Proinflammatory Gene Polymorphisms on the Risk of Alzheimer's Disease
5 Sept 2013
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A number of studies associate Alzheimer's disease (AD) with APOE polymorphism and alleles which favor the increased expression of immunological mediators such as cytokines or acute-phase proteins. OBJECTIVE: In this study we evaluated the distribution of a set of functionally important polymorphisms of genes encoding prototypical inflammatory molecules in individuals with AD. We also investigated...
