Somatic copy number gains of α-synuclein (SNCA) in Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy brains.

TL;DR: Evidence of somatic SNCA gains in brain, more commonly in nigral dopaminergic neurons of Parkinson's disease than controls, negatively correlated with onset age, and possibly commonest in some multiple system atrophy cases is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

A 6.4 Mb Duplication of the α-Synuclein Locus Causing Frontotemporal Dementia and Parkinsonism Phenotype-Genotype Correlations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the clinical and neuropathologic features of a family carrying a heterozygous 6.4 Mb duplication of the SNCA locus with an atypical clinical presentation strongly reminiscent of frontotemporal dementia and late-onset pallidopyramidal syndromes.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA isolation protocol effects on nuclear DNA analysis by microarrays, droplet digital PCR, and whole genome sequencing, and on mitochondrial DNA copy number estimation.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided for significant method-dependent bias in DNA isolation from human brain, as reported in rat tissues, and which may contribute to array “waves”, and could affect copy number determination, and sequencing coverage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alteration of SMRT Tumor Suppressor Function in Transformed Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas

TL;DR: It is shown that down-regulation of SMRT in the immortalized "Weinberg's model" cell lines induces transformation of the cells, and assessment of cDNA array profiles should further help to design a working model for SMRT involvement in non-Hodgkin lymphoma transformation as a novel, nonclassical tumor suppressor.
