Expression data from advanced Parkinson's disease (P...

27 Total samples were analyzed. Study design included four conditions. PD patients (n=7) leukocyte blood samples were examined at 3 time points, and healthy control subjects (n=6) were examined once each. Samples were taken 1 day prior to sub-thalamic nucleous (STN) DBS treatment, several months after STN-DBS treatment upon optimal stimulation and following one hour electrical stimulation cessation. The off stimulation caused recruitment of the disease symptoms as measured by the Unified Park...

Expression data of substantia nigra from postmortem ...

Substantia nigra tissue from postmortem brain of normal and Parkinson disease patients were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays: 9 replicates for the controls and 16 replicates for the Parkinson's disease patients were used. Both cohorts included males and females.

Gene expression profiling of parkinsonian substantia nigra

Post-mortem human brains were obtained from moderately to severe parkinsonism individuals based on the Hoehn & Yahr criteria. All the subjects were negative for AD pathology according to Braak & Braak. The average age for PD and control is 76.6 and 77.8 years, respectively. The average postmortem delay for PD and control is 26.2 and 19.8 hours, respectively.

Parkinson's disease vs. controls, whole blood

Whole blood expression data from 50 patients with Parkinson's disease, 33 with neurodegenerative diseases other than PD, and 23 healthy controls.

Systematic meta-analysis and replication of genome-w...

The substantia nigra samples from 8 PD subjects were obtained from the Human Brain and Spinal Fluid Resource Center, VAMC, Los Angeles, CA, the Mind Unit Brain Bank at the University of Rochester, Rochester, NY, and from Dr. E. Masliah at UCSD, San Diego, CA, and 9 control subjects were obtained from the University of Rochester Alzheimer's Disease Center brain bank. The RNA was extracted using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen), DNAse treated with Qiagen DNAse, and analyzed on a bioanalyzer. The com...
