Immunological shifts during early-stage Parkinson’s disease identified with DNA methylation data on longitudinally collected blood samples

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the United States. Decades before motor symptoms manifest, non-motor symptoms such as hyposmia and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder are highly predictive of PD. Previous immune profiling studies have identified alterations to the proportions of immune cells in the blood of clinically defined PD patients. However, it...
