Abstract

Case-Control Studies Chi-Square Distribution DNA-Binding Proteins Female Gene Frequency Genetic Predisposition to Disease Genetic Variation Genotype Humans Male Middle Aged Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 4 Group A Member 2 Parkinson Disease Transcription Factors
The NR4A2 gene, which may cause autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (PD), has also been reported to be a susceptibility factor for sporadic PD. Here, we use a haplotype-tagging approach in 802 PD patients and 784 controls and demonstrate that common genetic variation, including NR4A2 haplotypes, does not influence the risk of PD in the Caucasian population.
