ImportanceGenetic and environmental factors are linked to Parkinson disease (PD), but the role of genetic susceptibility in the association between traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) and PD remains unclear.ObjectiveTo assess the gene-environment interaction between the polygenic risk score (PRS) for PD and long-term TRAP exposure and to estimate the joint effect with PD risk.Design, setting, and participantsThis population-based case-control study used a meta-analytical assessment of studies conducted in central California and Denmark. The Parkinson Environment and Genes (PEG) study in California (June 1, 2000, to July 31, 2017) included 634 patients with PD and 733 controls; the Parkinson Disease in Denmark (PASIDA) study (January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2017) included 966 patients with PD and 1045 controls. Data were analyzed from July 1 to October 31, 2024.ExposuresPRS was computed by summing the effect estimates of well-known risk alleles from an existing genome-wide association study's summary statistics using participants' genetic arrays. TRAP exposure was estimated using dispersion models to calculate long-term exposure (10- or 15-year means with a 5-year lag) to traffic-related pollutants (represented by carbon monoxide [CO] levels) at participants' residences.Main outcomes and measuresThe main outcome was diagnosis of PD. Using multivariable logistic regression, PD risk was estimated from interactions between PRS (per SD) and TRAP exposure (per IQR), with joint effects based on low (quartiles 1-3) and high (quartile 4) exposure levels.ResultsA total of 1600 patients with PD (mean [SD] age, 65.1 [9.9] years; 990 [61.9%] male) and 1778 controls (mean [SD] age, 64.5 [10.3] years; 992 [55.8%] male) were included. Meta-analytical estimates suggest that both higher PRS and increased TRAP exposure increased PD risk, with an interaction effect estimate of 1.06 (95% CI, 1.00-1.12). Joint effect analysis indicated that individuals with both high PRS and high TRAP exposure were at greatest risk of PD (odds ratio, 3.05; 95% CI, 2.23-4.19) compared with the reference group with a low PRS and low TRAP exposure, suggesting a synergistic effect.Conclusions and relevanceIn this gene-environment interaction study, a combination of long-term air pollution exposure and genetic susceptibility strongly contributed to the risk of developing PD. Widespread exposure to air pollution makes TRAP an important modifiable risk factor affecting large populations globally, particularly individuals with genetic vulnerability.
