“RNASeq analyses suggest Y-chromosome gene expression differs between brain and blood tissues but does not differ significantly in cases, controls or specific haplogroups. Overall, we did not find any strong associations between Y-chromosome genetics and Parkinson's disease, suggesting the explanation for the increased prevalence in males may lie elsewhere.” #isogg #dna #YDNA #Parkinsons #haplogroups #geneadons
Analysis of Y chromosome haplogroups in Parkinson's disease - PubMed
Parkinson's disease is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that is about 1.5 times more prevalent in males than females. Extensive work has been done to identify the genetic risk factors behind Parkinson's disease on autosomes and more recently on Chromosome X, but work remains to be done on the ma …
