Gene expression profiling of peripheral blood leukocytes shows consistent longitudinal downregulation of TOMM40 and upregulation of KIR2DL5A, PLOD1, and SLC2A8 among fast progressors in early Alzheimer's disease.
We investigated the association between TOMM40rs10524523, age of onset, and memory performance in patients with the PSEN1 M146L mutation in a large familial Alzheimer's disease Calabrian kindred, with a wide variability of onset not attributable to APOE.
