Findings

This variant in APP was detected in one out of 188 individuals with Parkinson’s disease with dementia (Schulte et al., 2015). The individual presented with bradykinesia and dementia, and also developed rigor and postural instability but no resting tremor. Three aunts also had Parkinson’s disease, but further details were not reported. The variant was absent in 188 PD cases without dementia and 376 controls.

Four heterozygous carriers of this variant were found in the gnomAD database (version 2.1.1, Oct 2021), three from the European (non-Finnish) population.

Neuropathology

Unknown.

Biological Effect

The biological effects of this variant are unknown, but the PHRED-scaled CADD score, which integrates diverse information in silico, was above 20, suggesting a deleterious effect (CADD v.1.6, Oct 2021).
