Epidemiology versus genetics in Parkinson's disease: progress in resolving an age-old debate.

Annals of neurology - 1 Sept 1998

Langston J W

Abstract excerpt

Determining the relative contributions of environment and heredity to the cause of Parkinson's disease (PD) is more than an academic issue because its resolution dictates future research directions to an enormous degree. This article reviews new advances on both sides of this equation. The recent identification of the genetic mutation responsible for parkinsonism in a large Italian kindred is likely to provide...
