Influence of Coding Variability in APP-Aβ Metabolism Genes in Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease.

Influence of Coding Variability in APP-Aβ Metabolism Genes in Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease.

The cerebral deposition of Aβ42, a neurotoxic proteolytic derivate of amyloid precursor protein (APP), is a central event in Alzheimer's disease (AD)(Amyloid hypothesis). Given the key role of APP-Aβ metabolism in AD pathogenesis, we selected 29 genes involved in APP processing, Aβ degradation...
