摘要
Recent molecular and cellular approaches to the nature of Alzheimer's disease (AD) have revealed that the disease has a heterogenous genetic background. Thus, AD is not a disease but a syndrome, In the present article we review the significance of the causative and susceptibility genes of AD identified to date and discuss future perspectives of AD research.
