Abstract:30The progressive loss of midbrain (MB) dopaminergic (DA) neurons defines the motor features of 31Parkinson disease (PD) and modulation of risk by common variation in PD has been well established 32 through GWAS. Anticipating that a fraction of PD-associated genetic variation mediates their effects 33 within this neuronal population, we acquired open chromatin signatures of purified embryonic mouse 34 MB DA neurons. Correlation with >2,300 putative enhancers assayed in mice reveals enrichment for MB 35 cis-reg… Show more
