Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms of incomplete penetrance of risk-modifying impacts of apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε2 and ε4 alleles on Alzheimer's disease (AD) have not been fully understood. We performed genome-wide analysis of differences in linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns between 6,136 AD-affected and 10,555 AD-unaffected subjects from five independent studies to explore whether the association of the APOE ε2 allele (encoded...
