This ethnicity- and sex-specific GWAS on PD implicate the pan-ethnic effect of SNCA, the universal but East-Asian inclined effect of PARK16, the East Asian-specific role of LRRK2 G2385R variants, and the possible disproportionate effect of SNCA and PARK16 between sexes for PD susceptibility. This evidence concerns the gene LRRK2 and Parkinson disease.
