Characterizing the role of brain derived neurotrophic factor genetic variation in Alzheimer's disease neurodegeneration.

Characterizing the role of brain derived neurotrophic factor genetic variation in Alzheimer's disease neurodegeneration.

There is accumulating evidence that neurotrophins, like brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), may impact aging and Alzheimer's Disease. However, traditional genetic association studies have not found a clear relationship between BDNF and AD. Our goal was to test whether BDNF single nucleoti...
