Abstract
► SIRT1 gene promoter was analyzed in sporadic PD patients and ethic-matched controls. ► Three novel heterozygous variants within SIRT1 gene promoter were identified in PD cases. ► Five SNPs were found in PD patients and controls with similar distributions. ► One novel heterozygous variant was only identified in healthy control. ► The variants may change SIRT1 levels, contributing to the PD onset as a risk factor.
