Maarouf et al. (2012) analyzed ventricular CSF from PD and controls obtained in the immediate post-mortem period using a two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) coupled with mass spectrophotometry protein identification, and found differences between the 2 groups in 6 molecules: fibrinogen, transthyretin, apoE, clusterin, apoA1, and glutathione-S-transferase-Pi (GSTP). The gene discussed is APOE; the disease is Parkinson disease.
