Abstract excerpt

Fibroblast growth factor 20 (FGF20) widely expressed in the substantia nigra is a neurotrophic factor and enhances the survival of midbrain dopaminergic neurons. Genetic association between variants in FGF20 gene (rs1721100) and PD has been reported, however, the results have been conflicting. A total of 3,463 PD patients and 4,606 controls from 5 case-control studies, which were identified by searching Web of...
