Differential DJ-1 gene expression in Parkinson's disease

Differential DJ-1 gene expression in Parkinson's disease

Mutations in the DJ-1 gene have been linked with rare cases of early onset, autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease (PD). To determine whether DJ-1 is also involved in the pathogenesis of common forms of PD we have compared DJ-1 mRNA levels in a number of post-mortem PD and control brain region...
