Housekeeping Genes for Parkinson's Disease in Humans and Mice.

ABSTRACT: A critical aspect of real-time PCR is the presence of housekeeping genes (HKGs) as an internal control for the normalization of expression data for genes of interest. It is necessary to select correct HKGs in the investigation of various pathologies. Thereby, we analyzed the stability of expression of the HKGs in Parkinson's disease (PD). The work was carried out in the peripheral blood of patients with PD and in the brain tissues and peripheral blood of mice with MPTP-induced PD. As a result, Aars was the most stably expressed HKG in the mouse brain as a whole. However, different genes were more stably expressed in different parts of the brain. Polr2f was the most stably expressed in the cortex, Psmd6 was the most stably expressed in the cerebellum, and Psmd7 was the most stably expressed
