Recently, several CHCHD2 mutations were reported to be associated with autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (PD) in a Japanese population. However, an association between CHCHD2 and PD was not observed in 2 Caucasian data sets. The present study searched for CHCHD2 coding variants in Canadian PD patients.
