Association of transferrin C2 allele with late-onset Alzheimer's disease.

Human genetics - 1 Dec 1997

Namekata K, Imagawa M, Terashi A, Ohta S, Oyama F, Ihara Y

Abstract excerpt

Transferrin (Tf), an iron-transporting protein, has many variants, but C1 and C2 variants account for the majority of the population in all races. Since Tf is reported to be immunocytochemically detectable in senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD), we have examined the Tf allele frequency amo...
