Given the established association between numerous GBA1 variants and specific neurological diseases, we extended the exploration by a phenome-wide association study to assess the impact of GBA1 variants on a wider spectrum of health-related traits.

Phenotypic effect of GBA1 variants in individuals with and without Parkinson's disease: The RAPSODI study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Variants in the GBA1 gene cause the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher disease (GD). They are also risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD), and modify the expression of the PD phenotype.

PR001 gene therapy improved phenotypes in models of Parkinson’s disease with GBA1 mutation [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMutations in GBA1, which result in deficiency of lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase), are the most common known genetic cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Decreased GCase activity in PD patients with GBA1 mutations (PD‐GBA) causes accumulation of glycolipid substrates, which leads to lysosomal dysfunction and neuroinflammation.

Gaucher disease (GD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GBA1 gene, which produces the glucocerebrosidase (GCase) protein. There are more than 500 mutations reported in GBA1, among which L444P (p.Leu444Pro) and

The presence of GBA1 gene mutations increases risk for Parkinson's disease (PD), but the pathogenic mechanisms of GBA1 associated PD remain unknown. Given that impaired α-synuclein turnover is a hallmark of PD pathogenesis and cathepsin D is a key enzyme

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.

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.

and The Immune System: A Potential Role in Parkinson’s Disease?
It is clear that the immune system and inflammation have a role in Parkinson’s disease (PD), including sporadic PD and some genetic forms such as LRRK2 -associated PD.
