Olfactory dysfunction in <i>LRRK2</i> G2019S mutation carriers

Abstract

Olfaction is impaired in LRRK2 G2019S-mutation related PD, although less overall than other PD. Further, olfaction is impaired in a subset of LRRK2 NMC, suggesting that olfaction may be a marker for development of PD in this group, and that longitudinal studies are warranted.
