Inhibition of microglial GBA hampers the microglia-mediated anti-oxidant and protective response in neurons

2021-01-20

Abstract excerpt

Homozygotic mutations in the GBA gene cause Gaucher’s disease, moreover, both patients and heterozygotic carriers have been associated with 20- to 30-fold increased risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. In homozygosis, these mutations impair the activity of β-glucocerebrosidase, the enzyme encoded by GBA, and generate a lysosomal disorder in macrophages, which changes morphology towards an engorged phenotype, co...
