The APOE-epsilon4 gene-dose effect was also found to correlate with the loss of nAChR binding sites in patients with AD, as well as a reduced respon- siveness to the therapeutic AChE inhibitor tacrine (Poirier et al., 1995). Within an AD cohort, APOE-epsilon4 dose dependently correlates with higher losses of ChAT but not with losses in alpha4beta2 nAChRs (Lai et al., 2006).
