Plasma Glucosylsphingosine in GBA1 E365K, N409S, and L483P Heterozygous Mutation Carriers

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background GBA1 encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, with key substrates that include glucosylceramide and glucosylsphingosine. The E365K variant is the most common variant in GBA1 that is associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) but is not associated with Gaucher disease.

Associations of Monocyte Glucocerebrosidase with Cognition and Cholinergic Innervation in GBA1 Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The GBA1 gene encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase). Parkinson's disease (PD) patients carrying a GBA1 variant (GBA‐PD) exhibit faster cognitive decline, linked to cholinergic degeneration. Objectives The aim was to investigate whether GCase activity, measured in monocytes, correlates with cognitive dysfunction or ...
