http://datadrivenhealth.org/newslett...accumulations/ Genes and Protein Accumulations Researchers at Neuroscience Research Australia have found that two genes tied to protein accumulation in a Parkinson patient’s brain can tell how quickly the disease will progress. “Our study shows that these two genes can be used as a surrogate marker to estimate the rate of Parkinson’s disease progression” said Yue Huang of NeuRa, leader of the study. The two genes, NACP and MAPT have been implicated as risk factors for Parkinson’s disease in other studies. The NACP gene is related to the production of the synuclein protein, while the MAPT gene is involved in the production of tau....
