Abstract
Introduction
Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia "dementia" in aging. the incidence increases with age and is associated with brain attrition and focal neurological degeneration, especially in hippocampus and the forehead.. alzheimer's disease is classified according to its onset : early onset (less than 65 years ) and late onset (over 65 years ) type. alzheimer's is a multifactorial disease that both genetic and environmental factors contribute to its demographic distribution. the gene is located in 13q 19 area which is about 15 kilobase closer to apoe gene
Methods
In this study of control- test blood were taken from 117 patients and 130 control. dna extraction was contribute by salting iout /protenase k method and study on base arms-pcr method.
Results
Dna was extracted from blood samples of the healthy and patients , and their absorption (od) were determined then pcr was performed for all patient and control samples. pcr product was electrophoresed with10% polyacrylamide gel.
Conclusion
In rs 157580 those with ag genotype are protective against those of the genotype aa and the chance of getting the disease decreases by 0.255 times .
or :0.255 pvalue :0.05
by controlling the effect of this snp showed that being a female has no significant effect on the emergence of this disease .
