Exploring how risk genes cumulatively impair brain function in preclinical phase (i.e., in cognitively normal elderly) could provide critical insights into the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Working memory impairment has always been a considerable cognitive deficit in AD, which is likely under complex genetic control. Though, the APOE ɛ4 allele could damage the working memory performance...
Previous investigations into whether the APOE‐ε4 allele exerts cognitive effects at midlife have been inconclusive. We have advanced a “cognitive phenotype” hypothesis arguing that the ε4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) is associated with lower efficiency of neuronal plasticity thereby resulting in poorer cognitive performance independently of the pathology of Alzheimer's disease (Greenwood...
