ADAM10 Gene Variants in AD Patients and Their Relationship to CSF Protein Levels
24 Mar 2023
Abstract excerpt
ADAM10 is the main α-secretase acting in the non-amyloidogenic processing of APP. We hypothesized that certain rare ADAM10 variants could increase the risk for AD by conferring the age-related downregulation of α-secretase. The ADAM10 gene was sequenced in 103 AD cases (82% familial) and 96 cognitively preserved nonagenarians. We examined rare variants (MAF < 0.01) and determined their potential association in...
