Recently several reports have extended the apolipoprotein E (AF'OE) β¬4 association found in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) patients to early-onset (EO) AD patients. We have studied this question in a large population of 119 EOAD patients (onset 560 years) in which family history was carefully
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a proinflammatory cytokine, may be involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD) based on observations that senile plaques have been found to upregulate proinflammatory cytokines. Additionally, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have been found to delay and pr
## Abstract Alzheimer disease (AD) is characterized neuropathologically by neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques. A key component of plaques is AΞ², a polypeptide derived from AΞ²βprecursor protein (APP) through proteolytic cleavage catalyzed by Ξ² and Ξ³βsecretase. We hypothesized that sequence v
