DOI: 10.1002/cbic.202100396
Abstract: Glucocerebrosidase (GBA), a lysosomal retaining β‐d‐glucosidase, has recently been shown to hydrolyze β‐d‐xylosides and to transxylosylate cholesterol. Genetic defects in GBA cause the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher disease (GD), and also constitute a risk factor… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mds.28029
Abstract: Lysosomes are cellular organelles with multiple functions that are important in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Specifically, lysosomes are primarily catabolic stations that degrade both intracellular contents, including through autophagy, and extracellular contents trafficked through… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-63444-9
Abstract: GBA is the major risk gene for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), two common α-synucleinopathies with cognitive deficits. Here we investigate the role of mutant GBA in cognitive decline by utilizing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15548627.2018.1509818
Abstract: ABSTRACT Heterozygous mutations in GBA, the gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucosylceramidase beta/β-glucocerebrosidase, comprise the most common genetic risk factor for Parkinson disease (PD), but the mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. Here, we show… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/hmg/ddz030
Abstract: Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic (DA) cell loss and the accumulation of pathological alpha synuclein (asyn), but its precise pathomechanism remains unclear, and no appropriate animal model has yet been established. Recent studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ene.13927
Abstract: Individuals with GBA (glucocerebrosidase) mutations are at increased risk of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is still debated, however, whether this increased risk results from impaired glucocerebrosidase activity leading to substrate accumulation. Comparing the presence of… read more here.
