Microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) influences the risk of Parkinson's disease among Indians.

Neuroscience letters - 21 Aug 2009

Das Gautami, Misra Amar K, Das Shyamal K, Ray Kunal, Ray Jharna

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system and its prevalence increases with age. Microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT), a neuronal protein is involved in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases including PD. To determine the broader significance of this association with PD, replicative studies in distinct ethnic populations are required. In this...
