Genome-wide Association Analysis of Parkinson’s Disease and Schizophrenia Reveals Shared Genetic Architecture and Identifies Novel Risk Loci

Large-scale Rare Variant Burden Testing in Parkinson's Disease Identifies Novel Associations with Genes Involved in Neuro-inflammation

This work investigated the rare genetic component of PD at minor allele frequencies <1%, using whole genome and whole exome sequencing data from 7,184 PD cases, 6,701 proxy-cases, and 51,650 healthy controls and identified several genes reaching exome-wide significance.

Genome-wide epistasis analysis in Parkinson's disease between populations with different genetic ancestry reveals significant variant-variant interactions

A genome-wide non-exhaustive epistasis screening pipeline called Variant-variant interaction through variable thresholds (VARI3) is developed and applied to diverse PD GWAS cohorts and identified several epistatic signals associated with PD and replicated associations despite differences in the genetic ancestry between cohorts.

Variable Effects of PD-Risk Associated SNPs and Variants in Parkinsonism-Associated Genes on Disease Phenotype in a Community-Based Cohort

The hypothesis that different gene and protein-protein interaction networks that underlie PD risk, the PD phenotype, and the neurodegenerative process leading to the disease phenotype are supported are supported and point to the significance of the genetic background on disease phenotype.

Common and rare variant association analyses in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis identify 15 risk loci with distinct genetic architectures and neuron-specific biology

The combination of all ALS-associated signals reveals a role for perturbations in vesicle-mediated transport and autophagy and provides evidence for cell-autonomous disease initiation in glutamatergic neurons.

Establishing gene regulatory networks from Parkinson’s disease risk loci

The results not only contribute to an overall understanding of the mechanisms and impact of specific combinations of PD-SNPs, but also highlight the potential impact gene regulatory networks may have when elucidating aetiological subtypes of PD.

Genome-wide Association and Meta-analysis of Age at Onset in Parkinson Disease

This study refines the genetic architecture of Chr 4 underlying the AAO of the PD phenotype through the identification of BST1 as a novel AAO PD locus and opens a new direction for the development of treatments to delay the onset of PD.

The Parkinson’s Disease GWAS Locus Browser

This work has gathered data for all 2336 genes within 1Mb up and downstream of each variant to allow users to assess which gene(s) are most associated with the variant of interest based on a set of self-ranked criteria.

Fine-mapping of Parkinson’s disease susceptibility loci identifies putative causal variants

A robust list of likely causal variants underlying Parkinson’s Disease risk for further mechanistic studies is provided and the functional relevance of fine-mapped SNPs is confirmed using a suite of in silico validation approaches.

A transcriptome-wide association study identifies susceptibility genes for Parkinson’s disease

This work conducted a transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) for PD using the summary statistics of over 480,000 individuals from the most recent PD GWAS to identify 18 genes significantly associated with PD after Bonferroni corrections and prioritized genes that are likely to affect PD by using a TWAS approach.

Using genome-wide complex trait analysis to quantify 'missing heritability' in Parkinson's disease.

The results suggest that although GWASs are a useful tool in identifying the most common variants associated with complex disease, a great deal of common variants of small effect remain to be discovered.

Genome-wide association study of Parkinson’s disease progression biomarkers in 12 longitudinal patients’ cohorts

Novel genetic factors associated with heterogeneity of progression in Parkinson’s disease are identified and provide new insights into the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease as well as patient stratification for clinical trials.

Integration of summary data from GWAS and eQTL studies predicts complex trait gene targets

A method is proposed that integrates summary-level data from GWAS with data from expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies to identify genes whose expression levels are associated with a complex trait because of pleiotropy, and prioritize 126 genes that provide important leads to design future functional studies.

Quantifying the mapping precision of genome-wide association studies using whole-genome sequencing data

The association signals at rare causal variants are very unlikely to be mapped to common variants in GWAS using either WGS data or imputed data and vice versa, suggesting WGS is an efficient strategy to detect and fine-map rare variants simultaneously.
