Inheritance of the apolipoprotein E E 4 allele is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

It is now commonly known that possession of one of the three common alleles of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene (allele epsilon 4) confers an increased risk for both familial and sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD), and that this risk is dose-dependent. Other genes that may play a role in AD, either t
