Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction Analysis to Evaluate the Association of Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase (DΒH) Polymorphisms with Susceptibility to Dementia (SADEM Study).

Abstract excerpt

Dementia is a multifactorial disease in which environmental, lifestyle, and genetic factors intervene. Population studies have been used in looking for the susceptibility genes for this disease. Since the activity of dopamine b hydroxylase (DβH) is reduced in the hippocampus and neocortex in the brain, changes in the physiological status of dopamine have been reported in Alzheimer's disease (AD) induced by this...
