    Snippet: Many AD genes encode proteins that physically interact within a defined protein/protein interaction network, and this network has been subject to positive selection pressure. Selection for pathogen resistance was proposed as one possible explanation [65] . Pathogens have shaped human evolution and the development of the immune and pathogen defense mechanisms, endowing descendants of the survivors of dangerous infections with resistance genes [66].....
