Variants of Base Excision Repair Genes <b><i>MUTYH</i></b>, <b><i>PARP1</i></b> and <b><i>XRCC1</i></b> in Alzheimer's Disease Risk

Abstract

We conclude that BER gene polymorphisms may play an important role in the etiology of AD. Diagnosing the presence or absence of particular genetic variants may be an important marker of AD. Further research on a larger population is needed. There is also a need to examine polymorphisms of other BER in the context of AD risk.
