Abstract
Background: The RAB32 Ser71Arg variant has been identified as a novel risk locus for Parkinson's disease (PD) in North American, European and North African populations. However, its pathogenicity in Asian populations remains unclear.
Method: To investigate this, we screened for the RAB32 c.213C > G (Ser71Arg) variant using Sanger sequencing in 1,099 PD patients and 1,549 controls. And we search for the RAB32 Ser71Arg variant in public databases to identified its mutant frequency.
Results: Our results show that no individuals carrying the RAB32 Ser71Arg variant were identified in our cohort. Additionally, this variant rarely appears in Asian population databases.
Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the RAB32 Ser71Arg variant is unlikely to be a risk locus for PD in Chinese patients, which is potentially attributed to racial or ethnic differences.
期刊介绍:
Neurological Sciences is intended to provide a medium for the communication of results and ideas in the field of neuroscience. The journal welcomes contributions in both the basic and clinical aspects of the neurosciences. The official language of the journal is English. Reports are published in the form of original articles, short communications, editorials, reviews and letters to the editor. Original articles present the results of experimental or clinical studies in the neurosciences, while short communications are succinct reports permitting the rapid publication of novel results. Original contributions may be submitted for the special sections History of Neurology, Health Care and Neurological Digressions - a forum for cultural topics related to the neurosciences. The journal also publishes correspondence book reviews, meeting reports and announcements.
