GBA1 mutations cause Gaucher’s disease and are the strongest risk factor for Parkinson’s disease. Using stable cell lines and patient iPSCs, the authors show mitochondrial localization of GBA1, which may affect neurodegenerative disease risk.

Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) has been historically defined as a disease of striatal dopamine deficiency secondary to degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, related to the presence of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Interplay of GBA1 with lysosomal dysfunction and inflammation in Parkinson’s disease
Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase ( GBA1 ) gene, encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, represent the most significant genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease. These variants define a distinct clinical subtype characterized by earlier onset, accelerated motor decline, and ...

Clinical, mechanistic, biomarker, and therapeutic advances in GBA1-associated Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. The development of PD is closely linked to genetic and environmental factors, with GBA1 variants being the most common genetic risk.

Introduction: heterozygous mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA1), encoding the lysosomal enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) are the most common genetic risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Heterogenous Neuropathology in a Pedigree with RAB39B‐Related Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background In 2015, we reported a family with Parkinson's disease resulting from the RAB39B p.G192R (c.574G>A) variant. Since then, two affected brothers from the family have undergone autopsy. Objectives To characterize neuropathological findings, assess intracellular distribution of RAB39B protein, and examine the effect of p.G192R on α ...

Long‐Duration Response to Levodopa in the PPMI‐Cohort
Abstract Background Treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) with levodopa results in a sustained reduction of symptoms. Although the plasma half‐life of levodopa is short, it elicits a lasting effect, the long‐duration levodopa response (LDR). A decrease in LDR as PD progresses has been linked to motor complications, but long‐term data on the LDR and its

Heterozygous mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA1) represent the most common genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD) and are histopathologically associated with a widespread load of alpha-synuclein in the brain.
