A recent large-scale European-originated genome-wide association study identified 38 novel independent risk signals in 37 loci for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, whether these new loci are associated with PD in Asian populations remains elusive. The present study aimed to explore the relationship between the 12 most relevant loci with larger absolute values for these new risk loci and PD in the Chinese Han population. We performed a case-control study including 527 PD patients and 435 healthy controls. In the allele model, it was found that rs10748818/GBF1 was associated with PD in the Chinese Han population [p = 0.035, odds ratio (OR) 1.221, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.014–1.472

Accumulating evidence reveals that the sirtuin family is involved in the pathology of Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the association between the polymorphisms of the sirtuin gene and the risk of PD remains elusive. Here, we investigated the possible association of nine SIRT1 and SIRT2 SNPs with the risk of PD through a clinical case-control study from the Chinese Han population. Our results showed that rs12778366 in the promoter region of SIRT1 and rs2015 in the 3′untranslated region (3′UTR) of the SIRT2 were significantly associated with the risk of PD. Five SNPs related to SIRT1, rs3740051, rs7895833, rs7069102, rs2273773, and rs4746720 and two SNPs related to SIRT2, rs10410544, and rs45592833 did not show an association with PD risk in this study. Moreover, we found that mRNA level of SIRT2 was upregulated, and mRNA level of SIRT1 was downregulated in the peripheral blood of PD patients compared with healthy controls, and we also observed that SNPs rs12778366 and rs2015 influenced the SIRT1 and SIRT2 expression levels, respectively. Further functional assays suggest that rs2015 may affect the expression of SIRT2 by affecting the binding of miR-8061 to the 3′UTR of SIRT2, ultimately contributing to the risk of PD.

Background. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disease affected by multiple genetic and environmental factors. We performed a case-control study on candidate gene to scrutinize whether genetic variants inLRRK2,SNCA, andITGA8genes could be associated with sporadic PD in Chinese Han population.Methods. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) ofLRRK2(rs1491942),SNCA(rs2301134, rs2301135, and rs356221), andITGA8(rs7077361) were selected and genotyped among 583 unrelated PD patients and 558 healthy controls.Results. Rs1491942 ofLRRK2gene had a significantly higher genotype frequency (P=3.543E-09) and allelic G/C frequencies (P=2.601E-10) in PD patients than controls. Rs2301135 ofSNCAgene also showed an obvious difference in genotype frequency (P=4.394E-07) and allelic G/C frequencies (P=9.116E-13) between PD patients and controls. SNPs rs2301134 and rs356221 ofSNCAgene and rs7077361 ofITGA8gene lacked the significant association with the susceptibility of PD in Chinese Han population.Conclusions. Our study firstly expresses that rs1491942 ofLRRK2and rs2301135 ofSNCAgene are substantially associated with sporadic Parkinson’s disease in Chinese Han population.
