abstract：:Alpha-2 macroglobulin (A2M) is a serum pan-protease inhibitor that is related with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) through its ability to mediate amyloid beta degradation. Recently, it has been reported that the I1000V polymorphism in A2M gene might increase the risk of AD. In the present study, we invest...
