Abstract excerpt
The mutations of presenilins (PSs) gene and their clinicopathological correlations to Alzheimer's disease (AD) have lately attracted considerable attention. In this report we analyzed fifteen Japanese familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) including 12 early-onset FAD and 13 sporadic AD patients for the mutation of PS-1 gene by direct sequence analysis. We found the mutations, G384A, E280A in two FAD and H163R in one...
