Molecular-genetic nature of Parkinson’s disease in the East European cohort
Objective: Genetic testing of the Parkin gene in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) in the East European cohort from Belarus. Background: The diagnosis of Juvenile…Microarray analysis upon an synthetic α-synuclein induced model reveals some susceptibility genes in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To uncover new disease-associated genes and their relevant mechanisms in the pathogenetic process of neurodegenerative disorders, we carried out a gene microarray analysis based…Genetic variations of SNCA and striatal dopaminergic dysfunction in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate genetic variants in SNCA associated with accelerated deterioration in striatal dopaminergic activity. Background: Widespread a-synuclein…Variants in MCCC1/LAMP3 and DGKQ Identified Through GWAS are Not Associated with PD in a Malaysian Malay Cohort
Objective: To investigate the association between variants in MCCC1/LAMP3 (rs12637471, rs12493050, rs10513789) and DGKQ (rs11248060) with PD in a Malay cohort. Background: Previous genome-wide association…Higher Levels of Serum Uric Acid Associated with Motor & Non-Motor Symptoms in Early Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Uric acid (UA) has been shown to be potentially neuroprotective in Parkinson's disease (PD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that is clinically characterised by motor…MicroRNAs as Biomarkers for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To identify potential biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease by evaluating miRNA in cerebrospinal fluid samples collected from PD and healthy control subjects. Background: The diagnosis…Gender effects on clinical features in LRRK2 G2385R carriers and non-carriers in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study was to explore gender effects within the same genetic subtype and role of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) G2385R variants within the…Association of GBA polymorphisms and mutations with dementia in Parkinson disease: A 7-year study of three population-based incident cohorts
Objective: To study the effect of GBA variants on dementia in three deeply phenotyped population-based prospective cohorts of patients with incident Parkinson disease. Background: Dementia…Genome-wide association studies of motor and cognitive progression in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Motor and cognitive progression in Parkinson’s is heterogeneous. Our aim is to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with disease progression. Background: Rare genetic…eEF1A2 and Prdx1 as possible new targets for Parkinson’s disease therapeutics
Objective: We investigated expression of eEF1A2 and Prdx1 in differentiated SH-SY5Y cells in searching for possible new targets for Parkinson’s disease treatment. Background: Parkinson’s disease…
