Development of an allele-specific polymerase chain reaction genotyping test and association of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms and analytes with the risk of alzheimer’s disease / Mohd Nazif Samat @ Darawi

The incidence of Alzheimer”s disease (AD) is expected to increase exponentially as the population ages. Continuing research in this area is essential to better understand this disease and develop strategies for prevention and treatment. Recent genome-wide association studies have identified several...
