Testing association between LRRK2 and Parkinson's disease and investigating linkage disequilibrium
(2006)
Background: We and others recently identified the gene underlying PARK8 linked Parkinson's disease (PD). This gene, LRRK2, contains mutations that cause an autosomal dominant PD, including a mutation, G2019S, which is the ...
Association of tau haplotype-tagging polymorphisms with Parkinson's disease in diverse ethnic Parkinson's disease cohorts
(2006)
Background: The overlap in the clinical and pathological features of tauopathies and synucleinopathies raises the possibility that the tau protein may be important in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis. Several MAPT ...
The human prion gene M129V polymorphism is not associated with idiopathic Parkinson's disease in three distinct populations
(2006)
Coexistence of prion disease and idiopathic Parkinson's disease (TPD) has been previously described. It remains unclear whether this relationship may reflect the high incidence of IPD or whether both prion and IPD share ...
