The APOE ε4 Allele Affects Cognitive Functions Differently in Carriers of APP Mutations Compared to Carriers of PSEN1 Mutations in Autosomal-Dominant Alzheimer's Disease.

Abstract excerpt

Mounting evidence shows that the APOE ε4 allele interferes with cognition in sporadic Alzheimer's disease. Less is known about APOE in autosomal-dominant Alzheimer's disease (adAD). The present study explored the effects on cognition associated with the gene-gene interactions between the APOE gene and the APP and PSEN1 genes in adAD. This study includes mutation carriers (MC) and non-carriers (NC) from adAD...
