Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer disease (AD) is a complex, multi-factorial disease with the potential involvement of several genes. Alpha-2- macroglobulin (A2M) has been implicated in AD on the basis of its ability to mediate the clearance and degradation of -amyloid peptide. Nevertheless, it is not clear whether there are racial differences in frequency of polymorphisms of A2M in AD. We examined a group of 50 unrelated patients from...
