Comprehensive data for studying serum exosome microRNA transcriptome in Parkinson's disease patients.

ABSTRACT: Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, was classically attributed to alpha-synuclein aggregation and consequent loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Recently, emerging evidence suggested a broader spectrum of contributing factors, including exosome-mediated intercellular communication, which can potentially serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets. However, there is a remarkable lack of comprehensive studies that connect the serum exosome microRNA (miRNA) transcriptome with demographic, clinical, and neuroimaging data in PD patients. Here, we present serum exosome miRNA transcriptome data generated from four cohort studies. Two of these studies include 96 PD patients and 80 age- and gender-matched controls, with ano
