    • <i>Background:</i> Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common dementia disorder in elderly people. Currently, the only known genetic factor associated with the development of sporadic AD is the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) 4 allele. There is a need to identify other environmental and genetic risk factors that could modulate the risk of developing sporadic AD. <i>Objective:</i> To analyse the correlation between the ApoE and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism and plasma homocysteine levels and vitamins (B<sub>12</sub> and folic acid) concentrations in serum from patients with AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) as compared with control group. <i>Methods:</i> The study was carried out in 99 AD patients, 98 subjects with MCI and 100 healthy subjects. Diagnosis of probable AD was made according to the NINCDS-ADRDA and DSM-IV criteria. The following factors were analysed: age, gender, duration of disease, concentration of plasma total homocysteine, folic acid and vitamin B<sub>12</sub> in the serum and the polymorphism of MTHRF and ApoE genes. The results obtained were analysed by multivariate analysis of regression. <i>Results:</i> We found that plasma total homocysteine is increased in AD patients (p < 0.0001) and depended on the MTHFR T/T genotype in the presence of low folate levels (p < 0.05). The increased frequency of ApoE4 allele in the AD population was independent of homocysteine, folic acid and vitamin B<sub>12</sub> levels and MTHFR status. <i>Conclusions:</i> We conclude that the concentration of plasma total homocysteine is increased in AD patients. This may be associated with the T/T genotype in the MTHFR gene; however, the distribution of the MTHRF C677T polymorphism in the Polish population does not differ in AD and controls.

  • Behavioural pathology in Alzheimer's disease with special reference to apolipoprotein E genotype
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: Dementia and geriatric cognitive disorders. - : S. Karger AG. - 1420-8008 .- 1421-9824. ; 14:4, s. 208-212
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The aim of this study was to define the co-occurrence of behavioural symptoms and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in relation to apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype. Probable AD patients from the Alzheimer’s Day Clinic (n = 139) were assessed with the ‘Behavioural Pathology in Alzheimer’s Disease’ rating scale, and their APOE genotype was determined. This study demonstrated no relationship between presence of the APOE &#917;4 allele and any of the behavioural symptoms assessed, including delusions, hallucinations, depression, activity disturbances, aggressiveness and anxiety. Activity disturbances, delusions, hallucinations and aggressiveness paralleled the severity of AD, increasing in frequency with the severity of the dementia. The prevalence of delusions, hallucinations, aggressiveness and depression were found to be associated with lower levels of education.
