Carriers of Heterozygous Loss-of-Function ACE Mutations Are at Risk for Alzheimer’s Disease
We hypothesized that subjects with heterozygous loss-of-function (LoF) ACE mutations are at risk for Alzheimer’s disease because amyloid Aβ42, a primary component of the protein aggregates that accumulate in the brains of AD patients, is cleaved by ACE ...
