Polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) and DNA sequencing were employed to screen the coding region of the alpha-antichymotrypsin (AACT) gene in Han-Chinese population for polymorphism possibly associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Consequently, seven polymo

A strong association has been described in cross-sectional studies between the ~4 allele of the apolipoprotein E and late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). This study addresses the relationship between disease progression and the ~4 allele in 6 2 sporadic LOAD (onset at age 70 and over) patients. Di
To date, molecular genetic analyses have identified over 500 distinct DNA variants in five disease genes associated with familial Parkinson disease; ฮฑ-__synuclein__ (__SNCA__), __parkin__ (__PARK2__), __PTEN-induced putative kinase 1__ (__PINK1__), __DJ-1__ (__PARK7__), and __Leucine-rich repeat kin
## Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder in which relatives of the probands are affected approximately 4 times as frequently as relatives of control subjects. Several genes have been implicated as genetic risk factors for PD. We investigated the presence of six reported
