Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε2 and ε4 alleles have beneficial and adverse impacts on Alzheimer's disease (AD), respectively, with incomplete penetrance, which may be modulated by other genetic variants. METHODS: We examined whether the associations of the APOE alleles with other polymorphisms in the genome can be sensitive to AD-affection status. RESULTS: We identified associations of the ε2 and ε4...
