Abstract excerpt
The leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene was discovered to encode a member of an evolutionarily conserved family of proteins marked by GTPase domains usually in combination with kinase domains. Missense mutations in both the kinase and GTPase domains in LRRK2 have been found to cause late-onset Parkinson's disease (PD). In this study, we investigated the effects of the LRRK2 on endothelial inflammation. We...
