## Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder, with a prevalence of more than 1% after the age of 65 years. Mutations in the gene encoding leucine‐rich repeat kinase‐2 (__LRRK2__) have recently been linked to autosomal dominant, late‐onset PD that is cl

## Abstract Common genetic variants that increase the risk for Parkinson's disease may differentiate patient subgroups and influence future individualized therapeutic strategies. Herein we show evidence for __leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2)__ c.4883G>C (R1628P) as a risk factor in ethnic Chine
The promise of gene expression studies using microarray technology has inspired much new hope for finding complex diseases genes. It has become clear that complex diseases result from collective actions of many genetic and nongenetic factors. Therefore, genetic dissection of complex diseases should
