Mutations in the Presenilin 1 (PS1) gene on chromosome 14 cause most early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (AD). An intronic polymorphism in the PS1 gene was recently identified and reported to be associated with late-onset AD [Wragg et al., Lancet 347: 509-512, 1996]. The authors found an excess
## Abstract Granulin protein plays an important role in neurite outgrowth and neuronal survival. Recently, it was shown that mutations in __granulin__ (__GRN__) gene cause tauβnegative frontotemporal dementia supporting the idea that granulin is involved in neurodegeneration. Here we have investiga
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
