Validation and assessment of preanalytical factors of a fluorometric in vitro assay for glucocerebrosidase activity in human cerebrospinal fluid
Abstract Lysosomal dysfunction is an emerging feature in the pathology of Parkinson’s disease and Dementia with Lewy bodies. Mutations in the GBA gene, encoding the enzyme Glucocerebrosidase (GCase), have been identified as a genetic risk factor for these synucleinopathies. As a result, there has be...
