Popis: BackgroundWith the benefit of using next-generation sequencing (NGS), our aim was to examine the prevalence of known monogenic causes in early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD) patients in Thailand. The association between clinical features, such as levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID), and genotypes were also explored.MethodNGS studies were carried out for EOPD patients in the Tertiary-referral center for Parkinson's disease and movement disorders. EOPD patients who had LID symptoms were enrolled in this study (n = 47). We defined EOPD as a patient with onset of PD at or below 50 years of age. LID was defined as hyperkinetic movements including chorea, ballism, dystonia, myoclonus, or any combination of these movements resulting from levodopa therapy, which could be peak-dose, off-period, or diphasic dyskinesias.ResultsPathogenic variants were identified in 17% (8/47) of the Thai EOPD patients, of which 10.6% (5/47) were heterozygous GBA variants (c.1448T>C in 3 patients and c.115+1G>A in 2 patients), 4.3% (2/47) homozygous PINK1 variants (c.1474C>T) and 2.1% (1/47) a PRKN mutation (homozygous deletion of exon 7). The LID onset was earlier in patients with GBA mutations compared to those without (34.8±23.4 vs 106.2±59.5 months after starting levodopa, respectively, p = 0.001). LID onset within the first 30 months of the disease was also found to be independently associated with the GBA mutation (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 25.00 [2.12-295.06], p = 0.011).ConclusionOur study highlights the high prevalence of GBA pathogenic variants in Thai patients with EOPD and the independent association of these variants with the earlier onset of LID. This emphasizes the importance of genetic testing in this population.
