Quantitative biochemical profiling of GCase activity and α-synuclein proteoforms in post-mortem human brains from GBA-related and idiopathic Parkinson’s disease

Variants in GBA1 , encoding lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GCase), are risk factors for Parkinson’s disease (PD), which is characterized by α-synuclein (αSyn) accumulation and lysosomal dysfunction. Nonetheless, the relationship between αSyn accumulation and GCase deficiency remai...
