Resumen
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Motor symptoms typically do not manifest until significant neuronal loss has already occurred, highlighting the need for early detection and prevention. In this dissertation, we sought to improve our understanding of PD epidemiology by studying associations between potential modifiable risk factors, including antioxidant vitamins, dairy products, and urate, and PD risk. We conducted prospective analyses within three large cohort studies: the Nurses’ Health Study, the Health Professionals Follow-up Study, and the Canc

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most prevalent disorder and the leading cause of death worldwide. There are a number of CAD medications, which are effective and safe in most patients, but have been associated with adverse reactions such as angioedema induced by angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitors (AE-ACEi). In this study, we identified aminopeptidase P (APP) activity as an endophenotype for AE-ACEi, which is a heritable quantitative trait (heritability =0.336 +/- 0.251 SD) and is significantly reduced in a majority of our cases.

Resumen
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex multi-factorial disease in which several pathogenetic, clinical, environmental and stochastic factors are involved. It is on record that persistent virus infections, the progressive decline of immune competence with ageing and chronic psychological stress exposures might play a pivotal role in AD. This study shows that in patients with clinical and neurological AD diagnosis, antiviral immune response is defective in the majority of AD brain samples. Moreover, gene variants of APOE and IRF7 strongly affect antiviral gene expression profiles in hippocampus.

Abstract Parkinson’s disease and Huntington’s disease are progressive neurodegenerative movement disorders that typically manifest in adulthood.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, with genetic factors playing critical roles in its pathogenesis. Mutations in APP, PSEN1 and PSEN2 genes are confirmed to be causative risk factors for early-onset Alzheimer’s disease (EOAD). For late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD), growing evidence suggests it is caused by multiple genetic risk factors in corporation with the environmental exposures.

The majority of GWAS loci lack candidate genes, and may instead be located in regulatory regions, making the functional effects of specific variants difficult to appreciate.
