Abstract excerpt
Large-scale meta-analysis of genome-wide association data has identified six new risk loci (SIPA1L2, INPP5F, MIR4697, GCH1, VPS13C, and DDRGK1) for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the characteristics of those loci in a Han Chinese population from mainland China are unknown. We examined genetic associations of VPS13C rs2414739, MIR4697 rs329648, GCH1 rs11158026, and SIPA1L2 rs10797576 with PD susceptibility in...
