To die or grow: Parkinson's disease and cancer

WEST, A, DAWSON, V, DAWSON, T·2005·Trends in Neurosciences

Abstract

Epidemiological evidence suggests a reduced incidence of many common types of non-smoking-related cancers in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Genes that underlie familial forms of PD are often abnormally expressed in cancer, owing to their differential regulation or mutation. Functional studies implicate these genes in maintenance of the cell cycle, in some cases through interaction in the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Variation in genes associated with familial-linked PD could therefore modify susceptibility to both cancer and PD, implying some degree of overlap in the underlying biochemical dysfunction. When considering the normal function of these PD-linked genes in the periphery and their potential role in cancer, further emphasis might be placed on protein handling relating to cell-cycle control in the etiology of PD.

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Failure of neurons to maintain the G0 phase is associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

    “Failure of neurons to maintain the G0 phase is associated with numerous neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease [8–10].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
