  • PERIPHERAL BLOOD GENE MARKERS FOR EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE
    Publication number: 20130217028
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of molecular risk marker profiles for diagnosis of Parkinson's disease. More particularly, the invention provides methods for diagnosis of Parkinson's disease in an individual, utilizing certain profiles established based on the expression levels of certain genes, which together form a gene panel, in the peripheral blood of said individual, as well as kits for carrying out these methods. The profile encompass ALDH1A1.

  • DIAGNOSTIC TEST FOR PARKINSON'S DISEASE
    Publication number: 20100221735
    Abstract: The present invention relates to molecular markers for detection, prognosis and follow up of Parkinson's disease (PD), wherein said molecular markers are one or more genes with altered expression pattern, or gene products thereof (RNA or protein). Genes which expression is upregulated or downregulated in PD patients are tools for early diagnosis od PD, for monitoring the progress of the disease and can serve as targets for screening new agents for treatment of PD.

  • Detection of neurodegenerative disorders
    Publication number: 20050260577
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of detecting neurodegenerative diseases or disorders, particularly to methods for early detection of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease. The present invention provides a method for detecting a neurodegenerative disease in a subject, the method comprising testing the subject for an indicator of release of neuromelanin from cells in the brain, wherein a positive test is indicative of death of brain cells containing neuromelanin and is characterised by an elevated level of the indicator of release of neuromelanin compared to control values.
