    Rudakou, Uladzislau; Ruskey, Jennifer A.; Krohn, Lynne; Laurent, Sandra B.; Spiegelman, Dan; Greenbaum, Lior; Yahalom, Gilad; Desautels, Alex; Montplaisir, Jacques-Yves; Fahn, Stanley; Waters, Cheryl; Levy, Oren; Kehoe, Caitlin M.; Narayan, Sushma; Dauvilliers, Yves; Dupré, Nicolas; Hassin-Baer, Sharon; Alcalay, Roy N.; Rouleau, Guy; Fon, Edward A.; Gan-Or, Ziv (Lippincott, Williams and Wilkins, 2020-01-09)
    Objective We aimed to study the role of coding VPS13C variants in a large cohort of patients with lateonset Parkinson disease (PD) (LOPD). Methods VPS13C and its untranslated regions were sequenced using targeted next-generation sequencing in 1,567 ...
  • The dementia-associated APOE ε4 allele is not associated with REM sleep behavior disorder 

    Gan-Or, Ziv; Montplaisir, Jacques-Yves; Ross, Jay P.; Poirier, Judes; Warby, Simon; Arnulf, Isabelle; Strong, Stephanie; Dauvilliers, Yves; Leblond, Claire S.; Hu, Michele T. M.; Högl, Birgit; Stefani, Ambra; Monaca, Christelle; Cochen De Cock, Valérie; Boivin, Michel; Ferini-Strambi, Luigi; Plazzi, Giuseppe; Antelmi, Elena; Young, Peter; Heidbreder, Anna; Barber, Thomas R; Evetts, Samuel G.; Rolinski, Michal; Dion, Patrick A.; Desautels, Alex; Gagnon, Jean-François; Dupré, Nicolas; Postuma, Ronald B.; Rouleau, Guy (Elsevier, 2016-10-13)
    The present study aimed to examine whether the APOE ε4 allele, associated with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and possibly with dementia in Parkinson's disease (PD), is also associated with idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD). ...
  • Genetic markers of Restless Legs Syndrome in Parkinson disease 

    Gan-Or, Ziv; Alcalay, Roy N.; Bar-Shira, Anat; Leblond, Claire S.; Postuma, Ronald B.; Ben-Shachar, Shay; Waters, Cheryl; Johnson, Amelie; Levy, Oren; Mirelman, Anat; Gana-Weisz, Mali; Dupré, Nicolas; Montplaisir, Jacques-Yves; Giladi, Nir; Fahn, Stanley; Xiong, Lan; Dion, Patrick A.; Orr-Urtreger, Avi; Rouleau, Guy (Elsevier, 2015-06)
    INTRODUCTION: Several studies proposed that Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) and Parkinson disease (PD) may be clinically and/or etiologically related. To examine this hypothesis, we aimed to determine whether the known RLS genetic markers may be associated ...
  • The role of the melanoma gene MC1R in Parkinson disease and REM sleep behavior disorder 

    Gan-Or, Ziv; Mohsin, Noreen; Girard, Simon L.; Montplaisir, Jacques-Yves; Ambalavanan, Amirthagowri; Strong, Stephanie; Mallett, Victoria; Laurent, Sandra B.; Bourassa, Cynthia V.; Boivin, Michel; Langlois, Melanie; Arnulf, Isabelle; Högl, Birgit; Frauscher, Birgit; Monaca, Christelle; Desautels, Alex; Gagnon, Jean-François; Postuma, Ronald B.; Dion, Patrick A.; Dauvilliers, Yves; Dupré, Nicolas; Alcalay, Roy N.; Rouleau, Guy (Elsevier, 2016-07)
    The MC1R gene, suggested to be involved in Parkinson disease (PD) and melanoma, was sequenced in PD patients (n=539) and controls (n=265) from New-York, and PD patients (n=551), rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) patients (n=351) and ...
