Abstract excerpt
We previously demonstrated that in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, European apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 carriers express significantly more APOE ε4 in their brains than African AD carriers. We examined single nucleotide polymorphisms near APOE with significant frequency differences between African and European/Japanese APOE ε4 haplotypes that could contribute to this difference in expression through regulation....
