The activities of LRRK2 and GCase are positively correlated in clinical biospecimens and experimental models of Parkinson’s disease
2021-09-28
Abstract excerpt
LRRK2 is a kinase involved in different cellular functions, including autophagy, endolysosomal pathways and vesicle trafficking. Mutations in LRRK2 cause autosomal dominant forms of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Heterozygous mutations in GBA1 , the gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase), are the most common genetic risk factors for PD. Moreover, GCase function is altered in idiopathic PD and i...
