Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: An extra copy of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene causes autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD in Down syndrome (DS), but the factors underlying variability in age at onset (AAO) remain unclear. We investigated whether sporadic AD risk variants modify AAO. METHODS: We analyzed clinical and genetic data from 100 APP duplication (APPdup) carriers and 957 individuals with DS. Cox...
