The analyzer, called DISCOVER, allows you to highlight genes that are associated with the disease but have not yet been studied. Scientists analyzed 62,226 genes, narrowing them down to 168, and then selected 12 candidates, including the genes NUPR1 and UHRF2. These genes have not been previously reported in gene-disease association databases.
According to scientists, this method will help understand the mechanisms of oxidative stress and Parkinson’s disease in the future, and can also be used to search for new therapeutic targets. The developed method has already shown its effectiveness.
