Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to identify reliable markers of LRRK2 activity in human CSF.

Detailed Description

Specific aims of this project are:

Primary Objectives:

To evaluate each assay performance for its ability to detect LRRK2, its activity and/or the detection and activity of the pathways it impacts using a variety of different approaches (quantitative western blot, immunoassays and LC-MS). Assay performance will be assessed and those demonstrating high sensitivity and consistency will be considered for further development.

Secondary Objectives:

To assess the ability of the assay or a combination of assays to differentiate pathogenic LRRK2 variant manifesting and non-manifesting carriers, idiopathic PD and healthy non-carriers.
