Preclinical pharmacology of glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor venglustat in a GBA-related synucleinopathy model

Abstract Mutations in GBA, the gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase), represent the greatest genetic risk factor for developing synucleinopathies including Parkinson’s disease (PD). Additionally, PD patients harboring a mutant GBA allele present with an earlier disease onset...
