RESUMO
We determined the effects of clinical variables on hexokinase (HK) activity in leukocytes from Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and controls. Age accounted for 51% of the variance in HK activity in the young and 23% in the old. Duration of illness in both familial and sporadic AD accounted for HK levels by 32 and 38%, respectively. Hexokinase activity increases with age and does not discriminate between familial and sporadic AD.
