Dementia among elderly apolipoprotein E type 4/4 homozygotes: a prospective study.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Jan 1995

Ganguli M, Cauley J A, DeKosky S T, Kamboh M I

Abstract excerpt

The E*4 allele of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene on chromosome 19 has been shown to be an age- and dose-related risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. Of 870 elderly women participating in an osteoporosis study, 13 were previously found to be homozygous for the APOE*4 allele; 1 was deceased and the rest were assessed for dementia in a "piggyback" study of dementia. One had moderate [clinical dementia rating (CDR...
