Using postmortem brain samples (N = 353) from a neuropathologically defined cohort comprising of cases with AD and/or AGD pathology built to best represent different APOE genotypes, we measured the amounts of major AD-related molecules, including Aβ40, Aβ42, apolipoprotein E (apoE), total tau (tTau), and pTau181, in the temporal cortex. The gene discussed is APOE; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
