abstract：:Amyloid peptide is thought to play a critical role in neuronal death in Alzheimer's disease (AD), most likely through oxidative stress. Free radical-related injury leads to DNA breaks, which subsequently activates the repair enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1). In this study, the relationship between genetic...
