Association between polymorphism of COMT gene (Val158Met) with Alzheimer's disease: An updated analysis.

Journal of the neurological sciences - 15 Feb 2016

Yan Weiqian, Zhao Cheng, Sun Lu, Tang Beisha

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have proposed the association between catechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT) Val158Met polymorphism and the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, there has been no solid conclusion from those reports because of the limited sample size and/or racial diversity. Here we aimed to give an in-depth and accurate evaluation of this association by performing a comprehensive literature search on websites...
