The contribution of APP gene dosage to the molecular phenotypes of Alzheimer's disease in human trisomy 21 neurons

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Down syndrome is a condition caused by trisomy 21 and occurs in 1 out of 700 births. People with trisomy 21 are high risk for developing Alzheimer's disease, a neurodegenerative disease that causes approximately 65% of dementia. People with trisomy 21 develop Alzheimer's disease pathologies by age 30, and about 80% have dementia by the age of 65. Having three copies of the APP gene, which resides on Chr 21 is attr...
