The effects of an intronic polymorphism in TOMM40 and APOE genotypes in sporadic inclusion body myositis

A previous study showed that, in carriers of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype ε3/ε3 or ε3/ε4, the presence of a very long (VL) polyT repeat allele in “translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 40” (TOMM40) was less frequent in patients with sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) compared with...
