BackgroundParkinson's disease (PD) is the second commonest neurodegenerative disease. The genetic basis of PD is indisputable. Both ADORA2A rs5760423 and CYP1A2 rs762551 have been linked to PD, to some extent, but the exact role of those polymorphisms in PD remains controversial.ObjectiveWe assessed the role of ADORA2A rs5760423 and CYP1A2 rs762551 on PD risk.MethodsWe genotyped 358 patients with PD and 358 healthy controls for ADORA2A rs5760423 and CYP1A2 rs762551. We also merged and meta-analyzed our data with data from previous studies, regarding these two polymorphisms and PD.ResultsNo significant association with PD was revealed (p > 0.05), for either ADORA2A rs5760423 or CYP1A2 rs762551, in any of the examined genetic model of inheritance. In addition, results from meta-analyses yield negative results.ConclusionsBased on our analyses, it appears rather unlikely that ADORA2A rs5760423 or CYP1A2 rs762551 is among the major risk factors for PD, at least in Greek patients with PD.
