Genetic and environmental risk factors and their interactions for Parkinson’s disease in a Chinese population

The interaction between genetic and environmental factors for PD was examined in a Chinese population. It was found that although the intron 2 MAOB (GT) n repeat polymorphism was not associated with PD in the population, a relationship might have been masked by the “protective effect” of tea drinkin...

Zusammenfassung:The interaction between genetic and environmental factors for PD was examined in a Chinese population. It was found that although the intron 2 MAOB (GT) n repeat polymorphism was not associated with PD in the population, a relationship might have been masked by the “protective effect” of tea drinking. In individuals who did not drink tea (
