Gaucher’s Disease (the Modern View on the Problem)

open access: yesGastroenterologìa, 2015
The article presents a literature review of the most common lysosomal storage diseases — Gaucher’s disease. This pathology is caused by a inherited deficiency in glucocerebrosidase that cleaves cerebrosides.

Ambroxol effects in glucocerebrosidase and -synuclein transgenic mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objective. Gaucher disease is caused by mutations in the glucocerebrosidase 1 gene that result in deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase.

No evidence for substrate accumulation in Parkinson brains with GBA mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
To establish whether Parkinson's disease (PD) brains previously described to have decreased glucocerebrosidase activity exhibit accumulation of the lysosomal enzyme's substrate, glucosylceramide, or other changes in lipid ...

Genetic and Pathological Testing Attitudes for Parkinson's Disease in At‐Risk Relatives

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is increasingly recognized as a neurodegenerative disorder with a broad clinical spectrum and diverse biomarkers enabling early detection. α‐synuclein seed amplification assays (SAA) and genetic testing now allow identification of PD pathology in asymptomatic individuals.

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 ...

Action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome: diagnostic applications of activity-based probes and lipid analysis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2014
Lysosomal integral membrane protein-2 (LIMP2) mediates trafficking of glucocerebrosidase (GBA) to lysosomes. Deficiency of LIMP2 causes action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome (AMRF).

The Future of Targeted Gene-Based Treatment Strategies and Biomarkers in Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Biomarkers and disease-modifying therapies are both urgent unmet medical needs in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and must be developed concurrently because of their interdependent relationship: biomarkers for the early detection of disease (i ...

Morbus gaucher: A report of two cases [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2006
Backround. Clinical features of inherited glucocerebrosidase deficiency were first described by Phillippe Charles Ernest Gaucher, French physician (1854-1918).

Case report: Multidisciplinary collaboration in diagnosis and treatment of child gaucher disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
Gaucher disease (GD) is an inherited lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene. The decrease of glucocerebrosidase activity in lysosomes results in the accumulation of its substrate glucocerebroside in the lysosomes of ...

Alzheimer's Biomarkers and Visuospatial Cognition in Parkinson's Disease: Modification by α‐Synuclein and Mediation of Age Effects

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Visuospatial deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD) often precede dementia and complicate daily functioning. Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and α‐synuclein aggregation frequently co‐occur in PD, but their combined impact on cognition is unclear.
