Genome-Wide Association Study Meta-Analysis For Parkinson Disease Motor Subtypes

PD is clinically heterogeneous, and at least two major motor subtypes are recognized, including tremor dominant (TD) and postural instability gait difficulty (PIGD) forms (Jankovic 1990; Stebbins 2013). Rare variants in LRRK2 and GBA have been associated with characteristic motor and non-motor profiles. More common genetic variants, including many other established PD susceptibility alleles, have yet to be systematically evaluated for impact on PD subtypes.

To discover genetic modifiers of Parkinson disease (PD) motor subtypes.

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis was performed in 8 cohorts including 3,212 PD cases of European ancestry (65% male, mean age: 64 years at evaluation, avg. disease duration: 5 years). We examined 2 complementary outcome traits based on the UPDRS or MDS-UPDRS, including (1) the dichotomous TD vs. PIGD subtype or (2) a continuous TD/PIGD ratio. Following quality control and imputation, ~5 million variants remained for analysis. For each study, regression was implemented, adjusting for onset age, gender, disease duration, and 5 ancestry principal components, followed by meta-analysis.

PD motor subtypes in our cohort included 47% TD, 41% PIGD, and 12% indeterminate. Among 44 established PD-risk variants (Chang et al. 2017), we detected nominal associations with motor subtype at TMEM163 (rs6430538, pratio=8.7x10-4, psubtype=0.01), GPNMB (rs199347, psubtype=0.01, pratio=0.04), SYT4 (rs12456492, psubtype =0.02), and DLG2 (rs3793947, psubtype=0.045). A genetic risk score including all PD risk alleles was also associated with subtype (pratio=0.04).  Although no variants (freq. > 0.01) reached genome-wide significance, our top result, rs2301857 (pratio=6.6x10-7) falls within the STK32B locus, adjacent to a risk allele for essential tremor (Müller 2016).

Several PD risk loci also modify PD motor subtypes. Although increased sample sizes are needed to resolve remaining uncertainties, the discovery of a suggestive association at STK32B hints at potential overlap between risk for essential tremor and the tremor-dominant PD motor subtype.
