[Pathology of familial Parkinson's disease].

Abstract excerpt

Studies of familial forms of Parkinson's disease (PD) have identified a growing number of genes that derive from the loci given the nomenclature PARK1-PARK13 (OMIM 168600). The alpha-synuclein gene has been implicated in rare autosomal dominant PD because of either mis-sense mutations (PARK1) or gene multiplications (PARK4). Moreover, UCHL1 (PARK5), LRRK2 (PARK8) and HTRA2 (PARK13) have been identified as...
