A protective APOE gene variant is enriched in Super Agers—people over 80 who think like 50‑year‑olds—cutting Alzheimer’s risk ...

More than 9 out of 10 Alzheimer's cases could be driven by specific variations in a single gene and the protein it produces, ...

Getting on in years has arguably always been a puzzle. There's the 82-year-old part-time farmer down the road who remains ...

Alzheimer’s may be driven far more by genetics than previously thought, with one gene playing an outsized role. Researchers ...

Potentially more than 90% of Alzheimer's disease cases would not occur without the contribution of a single gene (APOE), according to a new analysis led by UCL researchers.
