TMEM175, SCARB2 and CTSB associations with Parkinson’s disease risk across populations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Genome-wide association study of Parkinson's disease (PD) identified common variants associated with lysosomal mechanism, including TMEM175, SCARB2, and CTSB. We investigated the association between common and rare variants across populations using cohorts from the Global Parkinson's Genetics Program (GP2) (33,733 cases and 18,703 controls from ten ancestries). In the European cohort, we confirmed significant associations with PD risk for all known genetic risk variants across the three genes and TMEM175 p. Met393Thr as an independent genome-wide significant signal. Additionally, a novel independent signal, SCARB2 rs11547135, was detected. The burden analysis linked PD to SCARB2 in African American, Ashkenazi Jewish and East Asian cohorts. Single variants-based tests identified rare missense variants in SCARB2 in several populations. Our study reinforces the association of lysosomal genetic variants with PD risk, revealing genetic heterogeneity across populations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
