Our findings first demonstrated that VPS13C rs2414739, MIR4697 rs329648, GCH1 rs11158026, and SIPA1L2 rs10797576 do not confer a significant risk for PD in Chinese population.
A common haplotype, tagged by rs841, was associated with a reduced risk for PD (OR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.61-0.83, p = 1.24 × 10<sup>-4</sup>), and with increased GCH1 expression in brain regions relevant for PD (www.gtexportal.org).
