To identify low-penetrance genes related to sporadic essential tremor (ET) at the CYP2C locus, located in chromosome 10 q23.33. Leukocytary DNA from 200 ET patients and a control group of 300 unrelated healthy individuals with known CYP2C19 genotypes was studied for common CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 allelic variants by using amplification-restriction analyses. Patients with ET showed the following differences compared with healthy subjects: a 1.6-fold reduction in the frequency for CYP2C8*3 (p=0.006), a 1.35-fold reduction of CYP2C9*2 (p=0.05) and a 1.52-fold reduction in the frequency for CYP2C9*3 (p=0.07). The frequency for patients with ET carrying at least one defective allele was 1.33-fold reduced as compared with healthy subjects (p=0.002). In addition, a disruption of the CYP2C8*3/CYP2C9*2 linkage disequilibrium was observed in ET patients, with a 2.1-fold reduction in the percentage for carriers of the haplotype CYP2C8*3 plus CYP2C9*2 in ET patients (p=0.0001). These findings were independent of gender, age, age of onset, or clinical symptoms. These results suggest that alterations at the CYP2C gene locus are associated with the risk for ET.
