Abstract excerpt
Molecular genetic studies of the cytochrome P450 system enzyme CYP2D6, which hydroxylates debrisoquine, have indicated an excess of mutant alleles in large series of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) when compared with controls. We have investigated CYP2D6 polymorphism in 91 patients with mu...
