Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the GBA1 gene, which encodes the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase), are the most common genetic factor associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). These mutations are classified as "severe" or "mild" based on the residual GCase activity. This study aimed to compare the biochemical characteristics of peripheral blood and macrophages derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells...
