摘要
Serotonergic dysfunction has been im plicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This association study explores whether the serotonin 6 receptor (5-HT6) polymorphism (C267T) is a susceptibility factor for AD. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in the genotype and gene frequencies between the AD group and the normal controls (P = 0.006; and P = 0.023, respectively). These findings indicate that the 267C allale of the 5-HT6 gene is a risk factor for AD. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
