Published in 2022 at "Movement Disorders"

DOI: 10.1002/mds.29314

Abstract: GBA1 variants are among the most common genetic risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD). GBA1 variants can be classified into three categories based on their role in Gaucher's disease (GD) or PD: severe, mild, and… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of lipid research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jlr.2022.100199

Abstract: In Gaucher disease (GD), the deficiency of glucocerebrosidase (GCase/ GBA1) causes lysosomal accumulation of glucosylceramide (GlcCer), which is partly converted by acid ceramidase (ACase) to glucosylsphingosine (GlcSph) in the lysosome. Chronically elevated blood and tissue… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Human Molecular Genetics"

DOI: 10.1093/hmg/ddx120

Abstract: Mutations in the GBA1 gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) are important risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD). In vitro, altered GBA1 activity promotes alpha-synuclein accumulation whereas elevated levels of alpha-synuclein compromise GBA1 function,… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Lipid Research"

DOI: 10.1194/jlr.ra119000154

Abstract: β-glucosidases [GBA1 (glucocerebrosidase) and GBA2] are ubiquitous essential enzymes. Lysosomal GBA1 and cytosol-facing GBA2 degrade glucosylceramide (GlcCer); GBA1 deficiency causes Gaucher disease, a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by lysosomal accumulation of GlcCer, which is partly… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Neurology"

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.1039214

Abstract: Objective Biallelic mutations in GBA1, which encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, cause the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher disease (GD). In addition, mutations in GBA1 are the most common genetic risk factor for future development of… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032687

Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common movement disorder, estimated to affect 4% of individuals by the age of 80. Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase 1 (GBA1) gene represent the most common genetic risk factor for PD,… read more here.
