Glycosphingolipid metabolism and its role in ageing and Parkinson's disease

Kerri-Lee Wallom et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that variants in the lysosomal glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) are a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), and variants in multiple genes linked to diseases of glycosphingolipid (GSL) metabolism are also associated with PD. This indicates the importance of GSLs in the healthy brain and how lipid imbalances and lysosomal dysfunction are related to normal ageing and neurodegenerative diseases.

Do heterozygous mutations of Niemann-Pick type C predispose to late-onset neurodegeneration: a review of the literature

Susanne A. Schneider et al.

Summary: Research suggests a high proportion of late-onset neurodegenerative diseases in families with NPC mutations. 19 cases in the literature have shown individuals with heterozygous NPC mutations presenting with neurodegenerative diseases such as PD, atypical parkinsonism, dystonia, or dementia.
