Association between AKT1 gene and Parkinson's disease: A protective haplotype
(2008)
Variation in AKT1 has been associated with schizophrenia, bipolar disease and type 11 diabetes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential role of variability within AKT1 as a risk factor for Parkinson's ...
Protein misfolding in neurodegenerative diseases
(2004)
A common pathogenic mechanism shared by diverse neurodegenerative disorders, like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, may be altered protein homeostasis ...
Genetic and molecular pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease
(2006)
Parkinson's disease (PD), a common progressive degenerative disease of the central nervous system, affects about 1% of adults aged older than 60 years. PD is characterized by rigidity, tremor, postural instability and ...
MEIS1 and BTBD9: Genetic association with restless leg syndrome in end stage renal disease
(2011)
Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sleep related movement disorder that occurs both in an idiopathic form and in symptomatic varieties. RLS is a frequent and distressing comorbidity in end stage renal disease ...
Autoantibodies to alpha-synuclein in inherited Parkinson's disease
(2007)
Neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD) is accompanied by a local immune reaction in the affected brain regions. It is well established that alpha-synuclein is directly implicated in the pathogenesis of PD. Development ...
Screening for SNCA and LRRK2 mutations in Greek sporadic and autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease: identification of two novel LRRK2 variants
(2007)
Mutations in SNCA and LRRK2 genes, encoding alpha-synuclein and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2, respectively, cause autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (AdPD). The LRRK2 G2019S (c.6055G > A) and R1441G (c.4321C > G) ...
Network Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials in Multiple Sclerosis
(2012)
Background: The optimal treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) is not yet well-defined. Objective: To estimate the relative effectiveness of treatments in MS, we performed a network of multiple-treatments meta-analysis of ...
The role of G196A polymorphism in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene in the cause of Parkinson's disease: a meta-analysis
(2005)
The association between Parkinson's disease (PD) and the G196A polymorphism in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene has been investigated in several case-control studies, producing contradictory results: one ...
Association of paraoxonase 1 gene polymorphisms with risk of Parkinson's disease: a meta-analysis
(2004)
Paraoxonase1 (PON1) gene polymorphisms were implicated as risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD), but the results of case-control studies that investigated these associations were controversial. In order to provide an ...
