https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Azacitidine(Vidaza).html Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is one of the main enzymes in dopamine metabolism and is reported to be associated with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease (PD) and pharmacotherapy. However, researchers mostly focus on the most common polymorphism, rs4680. In this case-control study, we investigated the association of SNPs other than rs4680 with the levodopa (L-dopa) response and other clinical features in Chinese PD patients. Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the COMT gene were genotyped, and clinical data were collected. Patients with the TT genotype of rs165728 or rs174699 had larger daily levodopa equivalent doses (LEDs) than the patients with CC and CT genotypes under the dominant model (p = 0.01421 for rs165728 and p = 0.02302 for rs174699). Under the dominant model, the patients with GG at rs4680 G > A had a lower occurrence of dyskinesia than those with AA and AG (p = 0.0196). Patients with CC at rs4633 had a lower occurrence of dyskinesia than those with TT and TC (p = 0.0429) under the dominant model. The frequencies of the rs174675 T and rs933271 C alleles were higher in PD patients than in the controls (p less then 0.05). Our primary results showed the possible association of SNPs other than the most common functional rs4680 in COMT with interindividual variance in the L-dopa daily dose and susceptibility to dyskinesia in Chinese patients, although this was an exploratory study based on a small sample size. Larger and more randomized samples are necessary for further investigation.The pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide receptor (PAC1, also known as ADCYAP1R1) is associated with post-traumatic stress disorder and modulation of stress response in general. Alternative splicing of PAC1 results in multiple gene products, which differ in their mode of signalling and tissue distribution. However, the roles of distinct splice variants in the regulation of stress be
