Path mediation analysis reveals GBA impacts Lewy body disease status by increasing α-synuclein levels

Synucleinopathies including Parkinson's disease (PD) and Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are characterized by the accumulation of abnormal α-synuclein in intraneuronal inclusions, named Lewy bodies. Mutations in GBA1, the gene encoding the lysosomal hydrolase glucocerebrosidase, have been ident...
