• Common gene expression signatures in Parkinson’s disease are driven by changes in cell composition 

      Sanchez Nido, Gonzalo; Dick, Fiona; Toker, Lilah; Petersen, Kjell; Alves, Guido Werner; Tysnes, Ole-Bjørn; Jonassen, Inge; Haugarvoll, Kristoffer; Tzoulis, Charalampos (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The etiology of Parkinson’s disease is largely unknown. Genome-wide transcriptomic studies in bulk brain tissue have identified several molecular signatures associated with the disease. While these studies have the potential ...
    • Defective mitochondrial DNA homeostasis in the substantia nigra in Parkinson disease 

      Dölle, Christian; Flønes, Irene Hana; Sanchez Nido, Gonzalo; Miletic, Hrvoje; Osuagwu, Nelson; Kristoffersen, Stine; Lilleng, Peer Kåre; Larsen, Jan Petter; Tysnes, Ole-Bjørn; Haugarvoll, Kristoffer; Bindoff, Laurence; Tzoulis, Charalampos (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-11)
      Increased somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutagenesis causes premature aging in mice, and mtDNA damage accumulates in the human brain with aging and neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson disease (PD). Here, we ...

    • Genome-wide histone acetylation analysis reveals altered transcriptional regulation in the Parkinson’s disease brain 

      Toker, Lilah; Tran, Gia T.; Sundaresan, Janani; Tysnes, Ole-Bjørn; Alves, Guido; Haugarvoll, Kristoffer; Nido, Gonzalo S.; Dölle, Christian; Tzoulis, Charalampos (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-05)
      Background Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a complex, age-related neurodegenerative disorder of largely unknown etiology. PD is strongly associated with mitochondrial respiratory dysfunction, which can lead to epigenetic ...
    • Meta-analysis of whole-exome sequencing data from two independent cohorts finds no evidence for rare variant enrichment in Parkinson disease associated loci 

      Gaare, Johannes Jernqvist; Sanchez Nido, Gonzalo; Dölle, Christian; Sztromwasser, Pawel Szymon; Alves, Guido Werner; Tysnes, Ole-Bjørn; Haugarvoll, Kristoffer; Tzoulis, Charalampos (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-10)
      Parkinson disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. While genome wide association studies have identified several susceptibility loci, many causal variants ...
