Based on its analysis of a large cohort of individuals homozygous for the ε4 variant of apolipoprotein E (APOE4), a multinational team of researchers is arguing that homozygosity for APOE4 should be ...

For the first time, researchers have identified a genetic form of late-in-life Alzheimer’s disease — in people who inherit two copies of a worrisome gene. Scientists have long known a gene called ...

A single mutated APOE4 gene has been found to pose the strongest genetics-driven risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's, researchers said. Photo by Gundula Vogel/Pixabay ...
