Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the paraoxonase gene family (ordered PON1, PON2, and PON3) have been associated with the risk of developing sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS) in Caucasian populations. However, this association has yet to be confirmed in Chinese SALS patients. Nine SNPs across the PON gene cluster (i.e., rs662, rs705381, rs705382, rs854548, rs854560, , ,...
