In this publication we report clinical and genetic results in a large family with late-onset autosomal dominant Parkinson´s disease. Read more!
Parkinson´s disease (PD) is a common disabling neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, rest tremor, rigidity, and postural instability with a prevalence of 2% in elderly persons. While several genes have been identified to cause Parkinson´s disease (PD), monogenic forms explain only a small proportion of cases. We report clinical and genetic results in a large family with late-onset autosomal dominant PD.
