Alzheimer's Gene Slows Brain's Ability to Export Toxic Protein

The only known genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease slows down the brain’s ability to export a toxic protein known as amyloid-beta that is central to the damage the disease causes, scientists have found. The research, published by the Journal of Clinical Investigation, provides new clues into the workings of a protein known as apolipoprotein E4, or ApoE4. People who carry two copies of the gene have roughly eight to 10 times the risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease than people who do not.
