Zusammenfassung: | Agents and methods for the diagnosis and therapy of Alzheimer's disease and the related condition Down syndrome are disclosed. Such agents include four genes located within the region of human chromosome 21 occupied by the APP gene, which are exclusively expressed in Alzheimer's disease or Down syndrome, respectively, the proteins encoded and expressed by these genes, the nucleic acid molecules influencing their expression, and endogenous antibodies produced in humans with Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome against the above proteins. Also disclosed are antibodies and nucleotides to detect the presence of the proteins and nucleic acids in humans. 00000
