We investigated a common signal peptide polymorphism in the ␣ 1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) gene in 125 sporadic Alzheimer disease (AD) patients and 141 healthy control subjects in Chinese Han population. We found no significant difference in the distribution of ACT polymorphism between AD cases and cont

## 817 ated with increased risk for AD, at least in the Korean population. Nevertheless, it cannot be excluded that the association between IL-1A (-889) C/T polymorphism and AD observed in previous studies might be the result of linkage disequilibrium with a yet unidentified gene on chromosome 2.
## Wragg et al. [1996: Lancet 347:509-512] recorded an association between the intronbased presenilin 1 (PS1) genotype 1/1 and late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study was performed to determine if there is a similar association in the Chinese population. Ninety-one AD cases, 50 multiinfarc
