Influence of coding variability in APP-Aß metabolism genes in sporadic Alzheimer's disease

Influence of coding variability in APP-Aß metabolism genes in sporadic Alzheimer's disease

The cerebral deposition of Aß42, a neurotoxic proteolitic derivate of amyloid precursor protein (APP), is a central event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD)(Amyloid hypothesis). Given the key role of APP-Aß metabolism in AD pathogenesis, we selected 29 genes involved in APP processing, Aß degradation and c...
