Sex Differences in the Allele Distribution of PGLYRP2 Variant rs892145 in Parkinson’s Disease

Figure 2

PGLYRP2 expression levels in B lymphocytes. PGLYRP2 mRNA levels in PD patients (n = 13) and controls (n = 7). Data were normalized to housekeeping gene TBP and to a control reference sample. Data were log-transformed, and expression levels were analyzed with a student’s t-test, two-tailed value, with respect to (a) diagnosis ( = 0.38), (b) sex ( = 0.07), and (c) rs892145 allele ( = 0.35). C: Control, PD: Parkinson’s disease, AA: individuals carrying two copies of the major allele, and AT + TT: individuals carrying one or two copies of the minor (T) allele.
