Complementarity of Long‐Reads and Optical Mapping in Parkinson's Disease for Structural Variants
ABSTRACT Objective Long‐read sequencing and optical genome mapping technologies have the ability to detect large and complex structural variants. This has led to the discovery of novel pathogenic variants in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the SV detection capabilities of OGM and ONT in Parkinson's disease.

AAV gene therapy for GBA1-related diseases
Mutations in GBA1, the gene encoding glucocerebrosidase (GCase), are the most common risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). GBA-PD patients are a genetic subpopulation of PD carrying heterozygous mutations in GBA1. Additionally, bi-allelic mutations in GBA1 cause Gaucher disease (GD), a lysosomal storage disorder. Loss of GCase activity, a lysosomal

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 Objective Isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal state for Lewy body disorders and exhibits biological heterogeneity that may influence clinical expression and progression. We examined clinical features in individuals with iRBD and biomarker‐defined synucleinopathy.

Generation and Treatment of a Novel Severe Model of Visceral Gaucher Disease by Genetic Therapy
Background/Objectives: Gaucher disease (GD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GBA1 gene. Type 1 Gaucher disease is characterised by substrate accumulation in the visceral organs, which occurs in combination ...

We describe an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line that was derived from fibroblasts obtained from a Parkinson’s disease (PD) patient carrying the p.G2019S mutation in the LRRK2 gene and the p.N409S mutation in the GBA1 gene.

Cumulative Antigen Suppression Reduces Clonal Plasma Cell Evolution in Gaucher Disease
ABSTRACT Chronic antigenic stimulation is implicated in the pathogenesis of monoclonal gammopathy and multiple myeloma, yet longitudinal human evidence linking sustained antigen exposure to modifiable clonal plasma cell evolution remains limited. Gaucher disease (GD), caused by biallelic GBA1 pathogenic variants, is characterized by accumulation of ...

INTRODUCTION: Variants in the GBA1 gene have been identified as a common risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). In addition to pathogenic mutations (those associated with Gaucher disease), a number of 'non-pathogenic' variants also occur at increased ...

Diffusion MRI and α‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Status in Parkinson's Disease
Objective Positive α‐synuclein seed amplification assay (SAA) is a biomarker found in most people with Parkinson's disease (PD). We explored if free‐water (FW) imaging detects microstructural differences in the brains of patients with early PD with SAA+ or SAA– status.

AbstractEngineering bioactive iminosugars with pH‐responsive groups is an emerging approach to develop pharmacological chaperones (PCs) able to improve lysosomal trafficking and enzymatic activity rescue of mutated enzymes. The use of inexpensive l‐malic acid allowed introduction of orthoester units into the lipophilic chain of an enantiomerically pure
