## Abstract We studied genetic polymorphisms in the glutathione‐__S__‐transferase‐1 (GST‐1) gene region and the interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) promoter region in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD, n = 361), as well as controls (n = 257). Although we have confirmed the previous results, in a larger samp
Proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1, are known to modulate effects of neurotoxic neurotransmitters discharged during excitation or inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS). They also regulate development of glial scars at sites of CNS injury. To elucidate a genetic predi
