medicine | in patients with Alzheimer's disease, ornithine carbamoyltransferase is expressed in brain, but not in controls. Ornithine carbamoyltransferase expression is strictly restricted to vascular endothelial cells. Ornithine carbamoyltransferase activity is 880% increased in the cerebrospinal fluid of probable Alzheimer's disease cases compared with controls. Rare haplotypes may be associated with the risk of Alzheimer's disease through a possible modulation of the methylation of the ornithine carbamoyltransferase promoter | Homo sapiens |
