- 15 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: This study provides an exhaustive and up-to-date summary of the status of PD genetics research that can be readily scaled to include the results of future large-scale genetics projects, including next-generation sequencing studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of TREM2 R47H as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal lobar degeneration, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease.

Christina M. Lill, +61 more
TL;DR: The data show that rs75932628 is highly significantly associated with the risk of AD across 24,086 AD cases and 148,993 controls of European descent and carriers of the rs75 932628 risk allele showed significantly increased levels of CSF‐total‐tau but not Aβ42 suggesting that TREM2's role in AD may involve tau dysfunction.
