N1 - Funding Information:
The sibpair samples used in this study were selected from those collected by the NIMH Alzheimer's Genetics Initiative and were banked at the Coriell Cell Repository or from the NIA Cell bank (Indiana University). The collection of the Finnish samples were supported by the Alzheimer Foundation of Finland, the Emil Aaltonen Foundation, the Helsingin Sanomat Centennial Foundation, the Foundation of Signe and Anu Gyllenberg, the Medical Council of the Finnish Academy, the Sigrid Juselius Foundation, the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki University Central Hospital. The collection of the Mayo series was supported by the Mayo ADRC grant (NIH). Genotyping and data analysis were supported by a grant from the MRC (UK), the Alzheimer's Association, the Metropolitan Life Foundation, the Mayo Foundation and the NIH (J.H., M.H.).

N2 - We and others have previously identified two distinct haplotypes of the TAU gene in Caucasian populations. In this study, we have assessed whether these haplotypes show an association with Alzheimer's disease in a variety of populations. They do not. These data are consistent with the view that the involvement of TAU in Alzheimer's disease is a downstream event. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
