Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of novel risk loci, causal insights, and heritable risk for Parkinson's disease: a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies

Mike A. Nalls, +248 more
- 01 Dec 2019 - 
TL;DR: These data provide the most comprehensive survey of genetic risk within Parkinson's disease to date, providing a biological context for these risk factors, and showing that a considerable genetic component of this disease remains unidentified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined dementia-risk biomarkers in Parkinson's disease: a prospective longitudinal study.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the combination of CSF amyloid-β, neuropsychological and cortical thickness biomarkers might provide a basis for dementia-risk stratification and progression monitoring in PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of blood serum micro-RNAs associated with idiopathic and LRRK2 Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: Results from this exploratory study indicate that downregulated levels of specific circulating serum miRNAs are associated with PD and suggest their potential use as noninvasive biomarkers for PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlates of cerebrospinal fluid levels of oligomeric- and total-α-synuclein in premotor, motor and dementia stages of Parkinson’s disease

TL;DR: CSF oligomeric- and total-α-synuclein have different clinical, neuropsychological and MRI correlates across the proposed premotor–motor–dementia PD continuum, and correlations with CSF τ and Aβ support the hypothesis of an interaction among these proteins in PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

A preliminary study of the whole-genome expression profile of sporadic and monogenic early-onset Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: The altered biological final pathways in sEOAD and FAD-PSEN1 are mainly related with cell signaling cascades, synaptic plasticity, and learning and memory processes.
