Genome-wide gene-environment interaction analysis of pesticide exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease.
The researchers performed the first genome-wide gene-environment interaction analysis of pesticide exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease (PD). They concluded that although no significant interactions were identified, several of the genes with suggestive evidence of gene-environment interaction effects have biological plausibility for PD risk.
