Abstract excerpt

We have examined the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) allele distributions in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, senile dementia of the Lewy body type and neurologically normal controls. We have confirmed the strong genetic association between the epsilon 4 allele and Alzheimer's disease, shown that there is no association between the epsilon 4 allele and Parkinson's disease and shown that senile dementia of the...
