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.

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 ...

Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is clinically heterogeneous, with substantial variability in motor and cognitive features. Conventional clinical scales provide limited insight into underlying neural mechanisms and show poor longitudinal stability.

The GBA1 p.E427K (p.E388K) Variant Is a Risk Factor for Synucleinopathies: A Meta‐Analysis
Abstract Background Variants in GBA1 are important genetic risk factors for synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease (PD). Although several GBA1 variants are established risk or severity modifiers, the role of the p.E427K variant remains unclear.

Abstract Background Lysosomal dysfunction is central to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis, with GBA1 representing the strongest established genetic risk factor. Numerous other genes involved in lysosomal sphingolipid, glycosphingolipid, and ceramide metabolism have been proposed as contributors to PD, highlighting the need for genetic analyses ...

Background Osteoporosis and its primary complication, fragility fractures, contribute to substantial global morbidity and mortality. Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) deficiency, leading to skeletal complications.

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.

Background Gaucher disease is a rare pan-ethnic, lysosomal storage disorder resulting due to beta-Glucosidase (GBA1) gene defect. This leads to the glucocerebrosidase enzyme deficiency and an increased accumulation of undegraded glycolipid ...
