Abstract excerpt
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 answer to these contradictory results, a meta-analysis of all available studies relating the PON1-55M/L and PON1-192Q/R polymorphisms to the risk of developing PD was conducted. The racial...
