A2M can enhance the clearance of amyloid from the brains of AD patients, and the association of this gene with AD can provide clues about this process as well as ideas for new therapies for treating the disease. (references)

The first, conducted by scientists at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, confirmed the previously published association of the A2M gene with late-onset AD (Blacker et al., 1999). The original association and the confirmation were observed using the NIMH Alzheimer sample families. (references)

In 1998, in a highly publicized report, a team at Harvard University asserted that a polymorphism in the gene for alpha-2 macroglobulin (A2M) was a major risk factor for AD. This finding generated a great deal of interest because the A2M protein had been linked in other reports to the basic biological process thought to give rise to AD pathology in the brain.
