SUBSTANCE: there is offered method for prediction of Alzheimer's disease that implies DNA-testing of an examined person for polymorphism rs 908832 in gene ABCA2. Herewith, at least one scarce allele characterised by adenine observed in said polymorphic site of gene ABCA2 provides a basis to find propensity of a person to Alzheimer's disease.
EFFECT: higher reliability of the method.
