A strong correlation has been developed between occurrence of this disease and the gene APOE, which is responsible for lipoprotein catabolism. Some believe that the misfolding of proteins that stabilize microtubules, called tau proteins, causes this disease, but most researchers suspect that the development of plaques out of the two-molecule form of amyloid beta peptides is more influential. Thought to be caused by acetylcholine deficiency, this is, for 10 points, what condition of dementia characterized by forgetfulness.
