MCM2 and Alzheimer disease: Meanwhile, three genes, TPRA1 (chr6: 165,580,535-165,594,267 bp), MCM2 (chr6: 165,600,097-165,621,492 bp), and Tbx18 (chr1: 44,894,084-44,922,875 bp), which were all found to be related to embryo development in mice (Aki et al., 2008; Wehn and Chapman, 2010; Xu et al., 2022), were also detected in this study indicating that AD may influence the early stages of mink development, and therefore, influence growth.
