Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency Normalizes Neuronal Function in GCase Deficiency - Unexpected Biological Rescue Effect of Combined Genetic Risk Factors for Parkinson’s Disease
2020-08-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> The additive mechanistic effect of genetic risk variants for Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a plausible but largely unproven hypothesis. We investigated the mechanistic interaction between the two lysosomal PD risk genes glucocerebrosidase 1 ( GBA1 ) and sphingomyelinase 1 ( SMPD1 ) in complementing model systems. <h4>Methods: </h4> Using CRISPR/Cas gene editing, smpd1 mutant ( smpd1 -/- ) zebra...
