Background: Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) genes, encoding lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase) and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), respectively, are the most common related to Parkinson’s

Background: GBA1 mutation is the most significant genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). It encodes glucocerebrosidase (GCase), whose dysfunction – seen in Gaucher disease - leads to the accumulation of glucosylceramide and its derivate ...

The molecular mechanism of Gaucher disease caused by compound heterozygous mutations in GBA1 gene
Gaucher disease (GD, ORPHA355) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in GBA1, which encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase).

NIH Toolbox performance of persons with Parkinson's disease according to GBA1 and STN‐DBS status
Objective Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) gene and subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) are independently associated with cognitive dysfunction in persons with Parkinson's disease (PwP).

Objective Whether cognitive decline in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) carrying GBA1 variants is accelerated after subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) remains controversial. Clarifying long‐term cognitive outcomes is essential for informed decision making.

GBA1 Variants and Parkinson’s Disease: Paving the Way for Targeted Therapy
<i>Glucosylceramidase beta 1</i> (<i>GBA1</i>) variants have attracted enormous attention as the most promising and important genetic candidates for precision medicine in Parkinson’s disease (PD). A substantial correlation between <i>GBA1</i> genotypes and PD phenotypes could inform the prediction of disease ...

Lack of full sequencing GBA1 studies for patients with Parkinson’s disease in Latin America
Full sequencing of the GBA1 gene in patients with Parkinson’s disease provides a wide screening of pathogenic variants, but less developed regions of the world, like Latin America, may have difficulties in performing full sequencing.

The Age at Onset of LRRK2 p.Gly2019Ser Parkinson's Disease Across Ancestries and Countries of Origin
Objectives The objective of this study was to elucidate differences in the cumulative incidence of Leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) p.Gly2019Ser‐related Parkinson's disease (PD; LRRK2‐PD) between ancestries and countries. Methods We included 922 unrelated p.Gly2019Ser variant carriers (affected = 762 and unaffected = 160) from the Global Parkinson ...

Homozygous mutations in the lysosomal glucocerebrosidase gene, GBA1, cause Gaucher’s disease (GD), while heterozygous mutations in GBA1 are a strong risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD), whose pathological hallmark is intraneuronal α-synuclein (asyn)

Abstract Background Findings are contradictory regarding changes in the incidence and prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD) over time; data for other parkinsonian disorders are rare. Objectives To analyze temporal trends in the incidence and prevalence of eight parkinsonisms (PD, MSA, PSP, CBS, DLB, vascular parkinsonism, drug‐induced parkinsonism ...
