Alzheimer’s disease seen in near 100% APOE4 homozygotes
“Findings revealed that almost all APOE4 homozygotes exhibited AD pathology and had significantly higher levels of AD biomarkers from age 55 compared to #APOE3 homozygotes.
By age 65, nearly all had abnormal amyloid levels in cerebrospinal fluid, and 75% had positive #amyloid scans, with the prevalence of these markers increasing with age, indicating near-full penetrance of AD biology in #APOE4 homozygotes”
