SZSheng ZengYZYuwen ZhaoDCDong Chang

Key Points

  • This research examines the potential link between HSF1 variants and the risk of essential tremor.
  • Analyzed HSF1 variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) expansions
  • Investigated rare damaging coding variants
  • Utilized a large cohort for comprehensive risk assessment
  • No significant association found between HSF1 VNTR and essential tremor risk
  • Rare coding variants not identified as major risk factors for the condition

Abstract

Our data do not support HSF1 VNTR or rare damaging coding variants as major risk factors for ET. © 2026 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
