[Pathogenic mechanism and therapies for Gaucher's disease].

Gaucher's disease (GD) also named glucocerebroside lipidosis, is the most common kind of 1ysosomal storage disorder. It results from an autosomal recessive deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid β-glucosidase/ β-glucocerebrosidase (GBA), which is responsible for hydrolysis of glucocerebroside/glucosylceramide (GlcCer) into glucose and ceramide.
