Association of caffeine and related analytes with resistance to Parkinson disease among LRRK2 mutation carriers: A metabolomic study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To identify markers of resistance to developing Parkinson disease (PD) among LRRK2 mutation carriers (LRRK2+), we carried out metabolomic profiling in individuals with PD and unaffected controls (UC), with and without the LRRK2 mutation.

Methods

Plasma from 368 patients with PD and UC in the LRRK2 Cohort Consortium (LCC), comprising 118 LRRK2+/PD+, 115 LRRK2+/UC, 70 LRRK2-/PD+, and 65 LRRK2-/UC, and CSF available from 68 of them, were analyzed by liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry. For 282 analytes quantified in plasma and CSF, we assessed differences among the 4 groups and interactions between LRRK2 and PD status, using analysis of covariance models adjusted by age, study site cohort, and sex, with
