background: the seladin-1 (selective alzheimer disease indicator-1), also known as dhcr24, is a gene found to be down-regulated in brain region affected by alzheimer disease (ad). whereas, hair follicle stem cells (hfsc), which are affected in with neurogenic potential, it might to hypothesize that this multipotent cell compartment is the predominant source of seladin-1. our aim was to evaluate...

OBJECTIVE To disclose a novel mutation of the presenilin 1 (PS1) gene responsible for early-onset Alzheimer disease and to clarify genotype-phenotype correlation that should help to establish the function of this protein. BACKGROUND The PS1 and presenilin 2 (PS2) genes carry missense mutations in families with Alzheimer disease. The PS1 and PS2 proteins have similar structures, and all presen...
