TREM2 rare variant p.R47H is not associated with Parkinson's disease. (February 2016) - Mengel, David
Abstract: Variant p.R47H of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 ( TREM2) has been associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). We screened this TREM2 -variant in 821 PD patients including 261 demented PD patients (PDD) and in healthy controls (n = 919). Neither the entire PD nor the small PDD sample was associated with p.R47H.
