We genotyped the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2071746 and rs2071747 in HMOX1 and rs1051308 in HMOX2 in 583 Han Chinese with PD and 627 healthy controls using a customized 2×48-Plex SNP Scan™ kit.
The four previously reported Parkinson's disease (PD)-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) - rs1775143, rs823114, rs2071746 and rs62063857 - have rarely been studied in Chinese Han populations.
Subjects carrying both the HO-1 (-413, rs2071746) TT genotype and the GSK3beta (-157, rs6438552) TT genotype had a four times higher risk of developing PD than subjects without these genotypes (adjusted by age and sex OR = 4.12; 95% CI = 1.45-11.71; Bonferroni corrected P = 0.024).
