Glucocerebrosidase mutations and Parkinson disease

open access: yesJournal of Neural Transmission, 2022
The discovery of glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) mutations as the greatest numerical genetic risk factor for the development of Parkinson disease (PD) resulted in a paradigm shift within the research landscape.

Parkinsonisms and Glucocerebrosidase Deficiency: A Comprehensive Review for Molecular and Cellular Mechanism of Glucocerebrosidase Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2019
In the last years, lysosomal storage diseases appear as a bridge of knowledge between rare genetic inborn metabolic disorders and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) or frontotemporal dementia. Epidemiological studies helped

Mechanisms of Glucocerebrosidase Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease.

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2023
Beta-glucocerebrosidase is a lysosomal hydrolase, encoded by GBA1 that represents the most common risk gene associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) and Lewy Body Dementia. Glucocerebrosidase dysfunction has been also observed in the absence of GBA1 mutations across different genetic and sporadic forms of PD and related disorders, suggesting a broader ...

Glucocerebrosidase is imported into mitochondria and preserves complex I integrity and energy metabolism

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Mutations in GBA1 , the gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase), which cause Gaucher’s disease, are the most frequent genetic risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Mutant glucocerebrosidase impairs α-synuclein degradation by blockade of chaperone-mediated autophagy

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
The most common genetic risk factors for Parkinson’s disease (PD) are a set of heterozygous mutant (MT) alleles of the GBA1 gene that encodes β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase), an enzyme normally trafficked through the ER/Golgi apparatus to the lysosomal ...

Targeting neuronal lysosomal dysfunction caused by β-glucocerebrosidase deficiency with an enzyme-based brain shuttle construct

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Mutations in glucocerebrosidase (GCase) cause the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher’s disease and are the most common risk factor for Parkinson’s disease.

A Phase 1B Trial in GBA1‐Associated Parkinson's Disease of BIA‐28‐6156, a Glucocerebrosidase Activator

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2023
Loss‐of‐function mutations in the GBA1 gene are one of the most common genetic risk factors for onset of Parkinson's disease and subsequent progression (GBA‐PD).

Glucocerebrosidase mutations disrupt the lysosome and now the mitochondria

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
β-Glucocerebrosidase (GCase) mutations lead to glucosylceramide build-up in the lysosome, impacting α-synuclein aggregation and autophagy. Recently, Baden and colleagues found GCase in mitochondria, supporting mitochondrial complex I function and energy ...

Lysosomal lipid alterations caused by glucocerebrosidase deficiency promote lysosomal dysfunction, chaperone-mediated-autophagy deficiency, and alpha-synuclein pathology

open access: yesnpj Parkinson's Disease, 2022
Mutations in the GBA gene that encodes the lysosomal enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) are a major genetic risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD).
