Apolipoprotein E4 and SirT1 Interaction in Alzheimer’s Disease
… are still unknown. Εpsilon 4, an allele of apolipoprotein E (ApoE4), is currently the most important risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease. Individuals that inherit two copies of the ApoE ε4 allele have an approximately ten to thirty times increased risk of developing AD in comparison to …

Subclinical Atherosclerosis and Cognitive Functioning in a Population-Based Sample
… group as a whole, and in relation to age and ApoE4 allele status. Indirect measures of atherosclerosis (diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, abdominal obesity) were also examined. Logistic regression was used to examine the association between direct and indirect measures of subclinical …
