## Abstract __Alzheimer's disease afflicts every tenth human aged over 65. Despite the dramatic progress that has been made in understanding the disease, the exact cause of Alzheimer's disease is still unknown. Most gene mutations associated with Alzheimer's disease point at the same culprits: amyl

The presenilins (PS-1 and PS-2) are 2 members of a novel family of genes encoding integral membrane proteins recently implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. To date, 43 mutations have been identified in PS-1 and 2 in PS-2 that lead to familial presenile AD (onset before age 65 years). The

Homozygosity for the mutation Cys282Tyr in the HFE gene has recently been identified as a cause of hereditary hemochromatosis, a disorder resulting in the inappropriate absorption of iron. Approximately 10% of Caucasians are heterozygous for this mutation; however, the gene frequency in African Amer
