Exploring cancer in LRRK2 mutation carriers and idiopathic Parkinson's disease

Abstract: ObjectivesTo compare the risk of non‐skin cancer in LRRK2 mutation carriers and individuals with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (iPD), explore the age at which LRRK2 mutation carriers have cancer compared to iPD subjects, and clarify whether certain cancers are more closely associated with the LRRK2 mutation than iPD.Materials and MethodsDemographic data and cancer outcomes from 830 iPD patients and 103 LRRK2 mutation carriers (27 with PD) were retrospectively collected. Oncologic data were obtained from the C… Show more

“…Despite the associations with the specific cancers mentioned previously, we did not observe increased risks of hormone‐related cancers and breast cancer, as reported in our previous study . Two other studies also reported increased risks of breast cancer among LRKK2 ‐PD patients, and these populations were in part included in the pooled analysis. One of the differences is that the numbers of self‐reported cancers were much lower in the international LRRK2 ‐PD consortium.…”

“…LRRK2 mutation carriers have an increased risk of developing nonskin–associated cancers. A significant correlation was found between female mutations and breast cancer (Waro & Aasly, ), and LRRK2 amplification was associated with kidney and thyroid cancer (Looyenga et al, ). It is well‐known that PLAUR plays a significant role in cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis.…”

“…Not surprising, the Jak2 knockdown array generated the most similar gene signature as our CypA inhibition array, further confirming the relationship between these enzymes. It is interesting to note that leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) mutant that induces progressive degeneration of human neural stem cells ( Liu et al., 2012 ) is also associated with breast cancer ( Waro and Aasly, 2018 ), but its mechanistic role is poorly understood. Glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSKβ) interacts with the PRLr ( Plotnikov et al., 2008 ) and is activated by the PRLr, hence the relation between it and the NIM811 gene set.…”
