Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in Parkinson's disease (PD), emphasizing its importance in the brain and its potential link to neurotoxic responses.
- Researchers identified 1,030 interaction differentially modified cytosines (iDMCs) that exhibit paired changes in 5hmC and 5-methylcytosine (5mC), mapping to 695 genes relevant to PD, including genes previously implicated in the disease.
- The findings suggest that these epigenetic changes could contribute to the development of idiopathic PD, with many identified genes also playing roles in synaptic functions.
