✦ Synopsis

tribution in PD was 50% GSTp+ (males 53%, females 48%) and 50% GSTp-(males 47%, females 52%). These results were not statistically different from that of the control group.

Thus, absence of GSTp is not significantly associated with PD. However, we consider it useful to know not only which detoxifying pathway defects may be predisposing to PD but also those which may not.

The glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) catalyze the conjugation of a wide variety of reactive, electrophilic substrates with glutathione, facilitating their excretion. There is also evidence that GSTs can catalyze glutathione conjugation of lipid radicals as well as act in the generation of leukotrie

## Abstract Monogenic forms of Parkinson's disease (PD) provide an opportunity to examine mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation. Glutathione S‐transferase (GST) has detoxification and antioxidative functions. To screen genetic variations in GST for an effect on the onset age (OA) of PD, we typ
