Genetic variability in the SNCA gene influences α‐synuclein levels in the blood and brain
Abstract
Genetic variability in the promoter and 3′ region of the SNCA gene coding α‐synuclein modulates the risk to develop sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD). Whether this is mediated by regulating a‐synuclein expression levels remains unknown. Therefore, we analyzed levels of α‐synuclein in blood and human post mortem brain tissue including the substantia nigra using quantitative real‐time reverse transcriptase‐ polymerase chain reaction and enzyme linked immu‐nosorbent assay in vivo . Single nucleotide polymor‐phism (SNP) rs356219, a tagging SNP for a disease‐ associated haplotype in the 3′ region of the SNCA gene, has a significant effect on SNCA mRNA levels in the substantia nigra and the cerebellum. Further, the “protective” genotype 259/259 of the PD‐associated promoter repeat NACP‐Repl is associated with lower protein levels in blood than genotypes 261/261, 259/261, and 259/263. In conclusion, we provide evidence that a‐synuclein levels are influenced by genetic variability in the promoter and 3′ region of the SNCA gene in vivo .—Fuchs, J., Tichopad, A., Golub, Y., Munz, M., Schweitzer, K.

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.
