摘要：

In an effort to analyze the genetic role of tau in Alzheimer's disease (AD), 17 polymorphisms were identified. Eleven of these polymorphisms were in complete linkage disequilibrium and segregated as two haplotypes, A and B. The A and B haplotypes were investigated in 269 AD cases and 238 controls from two different sources, a clinic-based group (mean age of onset 65 +/- 9 years), and a population-based group (mean age of onset 80 +/- 5 years). A synergistic effect between the common tau genotype AA and apolipoprotein E (APOE epsilon 4) was found in the clinic-based AD group. Our study suggests that the common tau genotype AA may interact with APQE epsilon 4 in increasing the risk of AD in a subgroup of the AD population. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
