“…Next, we screened the genes related to Perry syndrome, frontotemporal dementia (FTD), such as DCTN1 , and MAPT by Sanger sequencing and C9orf72 by the repeat-primed PCR. The technological details and the protocols for MAPT , DCTN - 1 , and C9orf72 were described in previous reports [ 6 , 13 , 27 ]. Other genes related to familial or Parkinson’s disease, parkinsonism, and Alzheimer’s disease, including SNCA , PRKN , UCHL1 , PINK1 , DJ - 1 , LRRK2 , ATP13A2 , GIGYF2 , HTRA2 , PLA2G6 , FBXO7 , VPS35 , EIF4G1 , DNAJC6 , SYNJ1 , DNAJC13 , CHCHD2 , GCH1 , NR4A2 , VPS13C , RAB7L1 , BST1 , C19orf12 , RAB39B , PSEN1 , GRN , APP and APOE , were screened by the targeted gene panel sequence with an Ion Torrent System (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, US).…”
