▶Cerebrospinal fluid Aβ42 levels and APP processing pathway genes in Parkinson's diseaseAssociationN=246Lynn M. Bekris et al.(2015)· Movement Disorders
This case-control study examined genetic variation in APP processing pathway genes and their association with cerebrospinal fluid amyloid-beta 42 levels in Parkinson's disease patients (n=85) versus healthy controls (n=161). Two SNPs showed significant correlation with CSF Aβ42 in PD: APP rs466448 (lower levels, p=0.014) and APH1B rs2068143 (higher levels, p=0.002), while three SNPs correlated in controls: APP rs214484 and rs2040273, and PSEN1 rs362344 (all lower levels). Results suggest APP and APH1B genetic variants may modulate CSF Aβ42 levels in PD patients.
About CEP164
This gene encodes a centrosomal protein involved in microtubule organization, DNA damage response, and chromosome segregation. The encoded protein is required for assembly of primary cilia and localizes to mature centrioles. Defects in this gene are a cause of nephronophthisis-related ciliopathies. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
