Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Preclinical and clinical studies support a strong association between mutations in the GBA1 gene that encodes beta-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) (EC 3.2.1.45; glucosylceramidase beta) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). Alpha-synuclein (AS), a key player in PD pathogenesis, and GBA1 mutations may independently and synergistically cause lysosomal dysfunction and thus, embody clinicall...
