Association of LRRK2 exonic variants with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease: a case-control study.

Owen A. Ross, +70 more
- 01 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: The results for LRRK2 show that several rare and common genetic variants in the same gene can have independent effects on disease risk, and are important in the cause and pathogenesis of PD in a greater proportion of patients with this disease than previously believed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel PINK1 mutations in early-onset parkinsonism.

TL;DR: Mutation analysis in eight inbred families whose haplotypes link to the PARK6 region identified six pathogenic mutations in six unrelated families, suggesting that PINK1 may be the second most common causative gene next to parkin in parkinsonism with the recessive mode of inheritance.
