A large genome‐wide association study has shown that the “leucine‐rich repeat (LRR) and immunoglobulin (Ig) domain‐containing, Nogo receptor‐interacting protein‐1 (LINGO1) gene” is associated with an increased risk for essential tremor (ET) recently. Given the clinical phenotype overlap between Parkinson's disease (PD) and ET, and LINGO1 had also been demonstrated to play roles in the structural plasticity and integrity of the DA neurons as well as survival of dopaminergic neurons in PD animal models, it has been suggested that the LINGO1 variant could be associated with PD. Here, we report the first analysis of the LINGO1 variant rs9652490 (A > G) in two independent case–control cohorts in ethnic Chinese populations involving a total of 1,305 subjects (649 PD patients and 656 controls) from Taiwan and Singapore. We were unable to demonstrate any significant association between genotype distribution and allele frequency with risk of PD in each case–control study and in the pooled analysis. Further meta‐analysis including all published data and ours failed to demonstrate any modulatory role of rs9652490 GG genotype or G allele. LINGO1 variant rs9652490 (A > G) is unlikely to play a major role in PD in our Chinese populations. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Sequence analysis of all the exons of EIF4G1 in 96 Asian patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) did not reveal any pathogenic mutations. A novel coding variant (Pro693Ser) in exon 15 (position 2077) was detected in one PD patient but not in 539 control subjects. Analysis of a coding polymorphic variant (rs2178403) in 1330 subjects revealed similar frequency between control subjects (0.638) and PD patients (0.640). EIF4G1 is an uncommon cause of PD in our Asian cohort. 相似文献

Genome-wide association and large-scale replication studies have linked Parkinson's disease (PD) to a locus on 4p15 encompassing a single gene encoding bone marrow stromal cell antigen 1 (BST1). To screen for causative mutations of BST1 in PD, we have directly sequenced all the 9 exons of BST1 in a Chinese cohort consisting of 524 PD cases and 527 controls. As a result, 6 known and 1 novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified in exons 1, 3, 4, 7, and 9. However, none of these SNPs were associated with PD. The data, together with previous reports, suggested that the association between BST1 and PD might be determined by the noncoding sequences of the gene. 相似文献

Psychiatric disorders are common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and hallucinations are observed in nearly 40% of PD patients. The involvement of dopaminergic system in the pathogenesis of psychosis has been sustained by most of the authors even if several evidences indicate that multiple neurochemical substrates might underlie psychosis in PD. In PD there is an extensive loss of serotoninergic raphe neurons and serotonin dysfunction had been implicated in the pathogenesis of many psychiatric disorders such as depression, schizophrenia, and in psychosis of patients with Alzheimer disease. The association of a serotonin transporter gene-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) and the 5-HT2A receptor T102C polymorphism with psychosis in a group of patients with PD was investigated. No significant differences in the distribution of allele and genotype frequencies of the 5-HTTLPR (p>0.01) and 5-HT2A T102C (p>0.05) were found between patients and controls as well as between the patients' subgroups without and with psychosis. These data might suggest that 5-HTTLPR and 5-HT2A polymorphisms are not major susceptibility factors of psychotic symptoms in PD patients. 相似文献

Histamine is a central neurotransmitter degraded by histamine-N-methyltransferase (HNMT). Several abnormalities in the histaminergic system were found in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), thus we tested the possible association of a Thr105Ile functional polymorphism in HNMT with PD. A total of 913 patients with PD and 958 controls were genotyped using a TaqMan RT-PCR Genotyping Assay (Foster City, California, USA). Lower frequency of HNMT Ile105 allele that is associated with decreased enzymatic activity was found in patients compared with controls (χ(2) = 11.65; p = 0.0006). We performed meta-analysis to confirm the association of Thr105Ile functional polymorphism with PD. Our results indicate that lower HNMT activity plays a role in the pathogenesis of PD. 相似文献

With the etiology being unclear till date, a combination of age, genetic and environmental factors are known to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Mutations in PARK2 gene have been implicated to cause autosomal recessive early onset PD. We analyzed the 12 coding exons of PARK2 gene in 16 early onset PD patients of South Indian ethnicity. PARK2 mutations were present in 68% of the early onset cases. We report the presence of four PARK2 sequence variants c.1239G>C, c.171+25T>C, c.202A>G, c.601G>A, and a novel insertion mutation, c.798_799insA in the exon 7 of PARK2 gene. These results suggest that mutations in PARK2 gene may be a common cause of PD among South Indian early onset patients. 相似文献

The discovery of LRRK2 gene mutations in late-onset Parkinson's disease (PD) has irrevocably established the role of genetics in the etiology of PD. The LRRK1 gene is the single homolog of LRRK2. A high degree of homology exists between LRRK1 and LRRK2, indicative of shared functions and/or pathways. One study has examined LRRK1 in familial parkinsonism by complete sequencing of the gene, reporting 4 novel non-synonymous coding variants within the LRRK1 gene. One of these variants (ss65713826) was identified in a Norwegian proband. We investigated whether five common polymorphisms or these recently identified coding changes within LRRK1 are associated with PD in the Norwegian population. Two rare coding variants ss65713826 and ss65713830 were more frequent in patients than controls. However, their identification in healthy controls and lack of co-segregation with disease suggests they may represent benign polymorphisms. 相似文献

Early- and late-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD and LOPD) have been associated with mutations in the PARKIN gene. Several studies have reported association of Parkinson's disease (PD) with different polymorphisms in different ethnic populations. To study the role of PARKIN polymorphisms as risk factors for PD in a genetically homogeneous northeastern Mexican population, four previously described coding polymorphisms (Ser167Asn, Val380Leu, Arg366Trp, and Asp394Asn) were analyzed by using the PCR-RFLP technique. This case–control study comprised 117 unrelated patients (mean age 59 ± 12 years, range 25–83 years) and 122 healthy unrelated control subjects (mean age 50 ± 15 years, range 25–85 years). The homozygous Trp366 and Asn394 genotypes were not present in our study. The Ser167Asn and Val380Leu polymorphisms were not associated with this disease. For the control group, Ser167Asn and Val380Leu were in Hardy–Weinberg disequilibrium. Given that the main causes of Hardy–Weinberg disequilibrium in controls are selection bias or genotyping error, a competing risk of death associated with the mutant gene could be an explanation of this disequilibrium and lack of association. 相似文献

DNA variation at the FGF20 gene has been associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). In particular, SNP rs12720208 in the 3′ untranslated region (3′ UTR) was linked to PD-risk through a mechanism that would implicate a differential binding to microRNA-433 (miR-433). The reduction of the affinity of miR-433 to the 3′ UTR would result in increased FGF20 expression and upregulation of alpha-synuclein, which could in turn promote dopaminergic neurons degeneration. We genotyped the rs12720208 SNP in a total of 512 PD patients and 258 healthy controls from Spain, and searched for miR-433 variants in the patients. We did not find significant differences in allele and genotype frequencies between patients and controls. None of the patients had miR-433 variants. In conclusion, our work did not confirm the association between rs12720208 and PD, or an effect of miR-433 variants on this disease. 相似文献

Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) have overlapping clinical and pathological features, suggesting a common pathway for these 2 neurodegenerative disorders. Here we investigated the association of both AD and PD GWAS top hits with PD susceptibility. We selected 25 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 9 genes (ABCA7, APOE, BST1, CLU, CR1, LRRK2, PARK16, PICALM, and SNCA) that were genotyped in 1036 PD case patients and 1208 controls. Case patients and controls were all ethnic Koreans. Logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate age- and sex-adjusted odds ratios. None of the AD-susceptibility loci (ABCA7, APOE, CLU, CR1, and PICALM) showed statistically significant association with PD susceptibility. In contrast, we replicated associations of SNCA, LRRK2, BST1, and PARK16 with PD susceptibility in Koreans. Of those, the SNCA SNP rs11931074 showed the most significant association with PD susceptibility (adjusted odds ratio = 1.48; 95% confidence interval = 1.31–1.67; p = 2.20E-10). In a logistic regression analysis with SNPs coded under an additive model, there was no significant genetic interaction between the LRRK2 and the PARK16 locus gene RAB7L1 in PD risk. Our results confirm the associations of SNCA, LRRK2, BST1, and PARK16 with PD susceptibility and fail to show significant associations of AD genome-wide association study (GWAS) top hits with PD susceptibility in a Korean population. 相似文献

Variation in AKT1 has been associated with schizophrenia, bipolar disease and type II diabetes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential role of variability within AKT1 as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). We performed a case-control association analysis of AKT1 in a Greek cohort of PD using four tagging SNPs and five constructed haplotypes. To assess the structure of this locus in different populations we have performed linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis using these variants [dunning]. In multilocus analysis, the frequency of a four-SNP1/2/3/4 haplotype was significantly higher in controls in comparison with PD patients (chi(2)=19.76, p=0.00009, OR=0.11 C.I.=0.03-0.35). The association remained significant even after Bonferroni correction for the number of haplotypes (p=0.0002). So, this certain haplotype was significantly associated with reduced risk of the disease. The data presented here suggest the involvement of AKT1 in protection of PD through many possible mechanisms involving different signaling pathways that could be potential therapeutic targets in the future. 相似文献

Molecular hydrogen serves as an antioxidant that reduces hydroxyl radicals, but not the other reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. In the past year, molecular hydrogen has been reported to prevent or ameliorate eight diseases in rodents and one in human associated with oxidative stress. In Parkinson's disease, mitochondrial dysfunction and the associated oxidative stress are major causes of dopaminergic cell loss in the substantia nigra. We examined effects of ∼50%-saturated molecular hydrogen in drinking water before or after the stereotactic surgery on 6-hydroxydopamine-induced nigrostrital degeneration in a rat model of Parkinson's disease. Methamphetamine-induced behavioral analysis showed that molecular hydrogen prevented both the development and progression of the nigrostrital degeneration. Tyrosine hydroxylase staining of the substantia nigra and striatum also demonstrated that pre- and post-treatment with hydrogen prevented the dopaminergic cell loss. Our studies suggest that hydrogen water is likely able to retard the development and progression of Parkinson's disease. 相似文献

Genome-wide association studies have identified a number of susceptibility loci in sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent larger studies and meta-analyses have greatly expanded the list of proposed association signals. We performed a case-control replication study in a Scandinavian population, analyzing samples from 1345 unrelated PD patients and 1225 control subjects collected by collaborating centers in Norway and Sweden. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms representing 18 loci previously reported at genome-wide significance levels were genotyped, as well as 4 near-significant, suggestive, loci. We replicated 11 association signals at p < 0.05 (SNCA, STK39, MAPT, GPNMB, CCDC62/HIP1R, SYT11, GAK, STX1B, MCCC1/LAMP3, ACMSD, and FGF20). The more recently nominated susceptibility loci were well represented among our positive findings, including 3 which have not previously been validated in independent studies. Conversely, some of the more well-established loci failed to replicate. While future meta-analyses should corroborate disease associations further on the level of common markers, efforts to pinpoint functional variants and understand the biological implications of each risk locus in PD are also warranted. 相似文献

Gene therapy is a promising therapeutic tool for Parkinson's disease (PD), but there is a lack of evaluated cell specific promoters that are relevant for the disease. We have chosen PD relevant promoter candidates for gene therapy vectors based on either previous studies; Drd1a, Drd2 and pDyn, or from a microarray study on parkinsonian patients; ACE, DNAJC3, GALNS, MAP1a and RNF25. These candidates have been evaluated in rat striatum to determine their suitability for use in cell specific vectors. The promoters had a neuronal specificity of 91–100%. The efficiency of the promoters was variable, but RNF25, DNAJC3 and MAP1a were comparable to widely used ubiquitous promoters. MAP1a was also affected by dopamine depletion. 相似文献

Coexistence of prion disease and idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) has been previously described. It remains unclear whether this relationship may reflect the high incidence of IPD or whether both prion and IPD share common pathogenetic mechanisms. For this reason, we investigated the genotype distribution of the M129V polymorphism of the human prion gene for association with IPD (controls: n = 398, IPD cases: n = 400). No association between genotypes in codon 129 and IPD was detected in three distinct populations, suggesting that this PRNP polymorphism has no direct influence on the susceptibility to IPD. 相似文献

APOE polymorphism has received extensive attention as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), but findings have been equivocal. Analysis of APOE variants in an Australian PD case-control sample revealed a robust association between genotype and age-at-onset (AAO) of PD in women (P=0.0008). These data not only further implicate APOE in PD, but also provide a stark example of the effects that gender may play in complex disorders. 相似文献
