Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic risk factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the gene-gene interaction (epistasis) between specific allelic variants is only partially understood. OBJECTIVE: In our study, we examined the presence of the ɛ4 allele of apolipoprotein E (APOE) and the presence of C677T and A1298C (rs1801133 and rs1801131) polymorphisms in the...
