Description
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative brain disorder that affects memory, thinking and behavior. It is the most common form of what is known as dementia, which is a loss of brain function that interferes with daily life. Some genetic mutations responsible for AD have been reported. This study’s purpose is to identify and assess the pathogenicity of APOE variants that may be associated with an increased likelihood of early onset and rapid progression of Alzheimer's disease.
