Association between polymorphisms in Interleukin-16 gene and risk of late-onset Alzheimer's disease
2015, Journal of the Neurological SciencesCitation Excerpt :The symptoms of AD, such as short-term memory loss, are progressive and irreversible [3]. AD is a multi-factorial disease which is the result of interaction between genetic and environmental factors [4], and classified as early-onset which is hereditary and late-onset or sporadic type [5]. Inflammation processes and cytokines may play an important role in pathogenesis of AD [6].
