Implication of the APP Gene in Intellectual Abilities.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cognitive functions are highly heritable and polygenic, though the source of this genetic influence is unclear. On the neurobiological level, these functions rely on effective neuroplasticity, in which the activity-regulated cytoskeleton associated protein (ARC) plays an essential role. OBJECTIVES: To examine whether the ARC gene complex may contribute to the genetic components of intellectual...
