Differences in Sex‐Specific Frequency of Glucocerebrosidase Variant Carriers and Familial Parkinsonism

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2022
Although men and women with the LRRK2 G2019S variant appear to be equally likely to have Parkinson's disease (PD), the sex‐distribution among glucocerebrosidase (GBA) variant carriers with PD, including limited to specific variant severities of GBA, is ...

Glucocerebrosidase deficits in sporadic Parkinson disease [PDF]

open access: bronzeAutophagy, 2014
Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative movement disorder characterized pathologically by abnormal SNCA/α-synuclein protein inclusions in neurons. Impaired lysosomal autophagic degradation of cellular proteins is implicated in PD pathogenesis and progression.

Glucocerebrosidase Mutations in Gaucher Disease [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Medicine, 1994
Thirty-six mutations that cause Gaucher disease, the most common glycolipid storage disorder, are known. Although both alleles of most patients with the disease contain one of these mutations, in a few patients one or both disease-producing alleles have remained unidentified.

Children with atopic dermatitis show increased activity of β‐glucocerebrosidase and stratum corneum levels of glucosylcholesterol that are strongly related to the local cytokine milieu

open access: yesBritish Journal of Dermatology, 2022
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is characterized by immune dysregulations and an impaired skin barrier, including abnormalities in lipid organization. In the stratum corneum (SC), β‐glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mediates transformation of glucosylceramide (GlcCER ...

Parkinsonism Associated with Glucocerebrosidase Mutation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Neurology, 2011
Gaucher's disease is an autosomal recessive, lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations of the β-glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA). There is increasing evidence that GBA mutations are a genetic risk factor for the development of Parkinson's disease (PD).

Path mediation analysis reveals GBA impacts Lewy body disease status by increasing α-synuclein levels

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2019
Synucleinopathies including Parkinson's disease (PD) and Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are characterized by the accumulation of abnormal α-synuclein in intraneuronal inclusions, named Lewy bodies.

Targeted Enzymatic VLP‐Nanoreactors with β‐Glucocerebrosidase Activity as Potential Enzyme Replacement Therapy for Gaucher's Disease

open access: yesChemMedChem, 2022
Gaucher disease is a genetic disorder and the most common lysosomal disease caused by the deficiency of enzyme β‐glucocerebrosidase (GCase).

Gaucher disease: achievements and prospects

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2021
Gaucher disease (GD) is the most common lysosomal storage disorder, resulting from a deficiency in the activity of a lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, which is involved in the catabolism of sphingolipids.

Isofagomine Induced Stabilization of Glucocerebrosidase [PDF]

open access: yesChemBioChem, 2008
AbstractStructurally destabilizing mutations in acid β‐glucosidase (GCase) can result in Gaucher disease (GD). The iminosugar isofagomine (IFG), a competitive inhibitor and a potential pharmacological chaperone of GCase, is currently undergoing clinical evaluation for the treatment of GD.

Impaired β-glucocerebrosidase activity and processing in frontotemporal dementia due to progranulin mutations

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2019
Loss-of-function mutations in progranulin (GRN) are a major autosomal dominant cause of frontotemporal dementia. Most pathogenic GRN mutations result in progranulin haploinsufficiency, which is thought to cause frontotemporal dementia in GRN mutation ...
