Severe GBA1 variants drive the GBA1-PD clinical phenotype: implications for counselling and clinical trials [PDF]
Variants in the GBA1 gene are the commonest genetic risk factor for Parkinson disease (PD). Genotype-phenotype correlations exist but with conflicting data.

GBA1 in Parkinson’s disease: variant detection and pathogenicity scoring matters
Background GBA1 variants are the strongest genetic risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the pathogenicity of GBA1 variants concerning PD is still not fully understood.

Synuclein Disorder-Related Genetic Determinants of Mild Behavioural Impairment in a Pre-Clinical Community Cohort. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The GBA variant confers increased risk of synuclein disorders but it is unclear what impact it has in pre‐clinical groups. This study aimed to identify early psychiatric and cognitive manifestations amongst pre‐clinical GBA carriers in a community cohort.

Multi-omics insights into GBA1-associated Parkinson’s disease: interplay of genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and lipidomics [PDF]
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. The pathogenesis of PD is driven by multifactorial mechanisms involving a complex interplay among environmental exposures, genetic susceptibility, and aging ...

The genetic architecture of Parkinson’s disease on the Island of Crete [PDF]
We investigated the genetic landscape of Parkinson’s disease (PD) on the island of Crete. DNA samples from 360 PD patients and 251 controls were analyzed using a combination of genotyping, whole-exome sequencing, and targeted screening for GBA1 variants ...

Exploring the relationship between GBA1 host genotype and gut microbiome in the GBA1L444P/WT mouse model: implications for Parkinson’s disease pathogenesis [PDF]
BackgroundHeterozygous variants in GBA1 are the commonest genetic risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD), but penetrance is incomplete. GBA1 dysfunction can cause gastrointestinal disturbances and microbiome changes in preclinical models.

Variants in the GBA1 and LRRK2 genes are the most common genetic risk factors associated with Parkinson disease (PD). Both genes are associated with lysosomal and autophagic pathways, with the GBA1 gene encoding for the lysosomal enzyme ...

Heterozygous variants in the glucocerebrosidase GBA1 gene are an increasingly recognized risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD). Due to the GBAP1 pseudogene, which shares 96% sequence homology with the GBA1 coding region, accurate variant calling by ...

Multiple mutations have been described in the human GBA1 gene, which encodes the lysosomal enzyme beta-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) that degrades glucosylceramide and is pivotal in glycosphingolipid substrate metabolism.
