Gene associated differences in pre-diagnostic symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease: a retrospective study
Objective: To investigate whether glucocerebrosidase (GBA) L444P and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) G2385R and R1628P mutations are associated with different symptoms and manifesting patterns…Motor and Nonmotor clinical phenotype in LRRK2 Parkinson’s disease patients: a Case-control study
Objective: Our study aimed to characterize and compare the clinical phenotype of LRRK2-PD patients with PD patients with no identified mutations. Background: The clinical phenotype…Altered intrinsic brain functional connectivity in drug-naïve Parkinson’s disease with LRRK2 mutation
Objective: This study aimed to compare the alterations in the cortico-striatal functional connectivity (FC) of drug-naïve Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with the leucine-rich repeat kinase…The influence of LRRK2 mutations on cholinergic system in manifest and prodromal stage of Parkinson’s disease: a positron emission tomography study
Objective: To evaluate the effects of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) mutations on the central cholinergic system in both manifesting and non-manifesting carriers using PET…Impaired stress-induced mitophagy in parkinsonian LRRK2(R1441G) knockin mutant mice
Objective: 1. Morphological changes and accumulation of ubiquitinated mitochondria in the striatum of aged leucine-rich-repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2)R1441G knockin mutant mice (Liu et al., 2014,…Lack of association between LRRK2 G2385R and cognitive dysfunction in Korean patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We investigated whether the G2385R polymorphism in LRRK2, a risk allele for the development of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) in East Asians, is associated…Reduced thalamo-cortical functional connectivity in asymptomatic LRRK2 mutation carriers
Objective: To characterize MRI functional patterns during resting state in asymptomatic LRRK2 mutation carriers. Background: Mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene are…Inflammatory profile discriminates clinical subtypes in LRRK2-associated PD
Objective: To evaluate whether inflammatory processes in PD patients with mutations in the LRRK2 gene (PD-LRRK2) are associated with modification of clinical features and disease…The role of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory use in symptomatic and asymptomatic LRRK2 G2019S mutation carriers
Objective: The purpose of the current study is to determine if non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) reduce the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) among LRRK2 G2019S…High throughput pooled-DNA sequencing of mendelian/susceptibility Parkinson’s disease genes in Spanish population
Objective: The primary outcome of our study was the identification of rare variants in 5 major Mendelian PD genes (SNCA, PARK2, PINK1, DJ1, LRRK2) and…
