Association between the c. 2495 A>G ATP7B Polymorphism and Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease
Nonceruloplasmin-bound copper (“free”) is reported to be elevated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In Wilson's disease (WD) Cu-ATPase 7B protein tightly controls free copper body levels. To explore whether the ATP7B gene harbours susceptibility loci for AD, we screened 180 AD chromosomes for s...
