## Abstract Recent whole genome association studies provided little evidence that polymorphisms at the familial Parkinsonism loci influence the risk for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, these studies are not designed to detect the types of subtle effects that common variants may impose. Here, we
## Abstract α‐Synuclein is one of the main components of Lewy bodies, a pathological marker of Parkinson's disease (PD). Certain missense mutations of the α‐synuclein gene cause familial PD, but the role of the gene in sporadic PD is still controversial. We scrutinized polymorphisms of the α‐synucl
