Several heterozygous variants of the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA1) have been reported to increase the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). GBA1-associated PD has been reported to be more severe than idiopathic PD, and more deleterious variants are associated with more severe clinical phenotypes. We report a family with a heterozygous p.Pro454Leu variant in GBA1. The variant was associated with a severe and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease with Lewy bodies that were clinically and pathologically diverse. Pathogenicity prediction algorithms and evolutionary analyses suggested that p.Pro454Leu is deleterious.
据报道,葡萄糖脑苷脂酶基因(GBA1)的几种杂合变异会增加帕金森病(PD)和路易体痴呆(DLB)的风险。据报道,GBA1相关的帕金森病比特发性帕金森病更严重,且更有害的变异与更严重的临床表型相关。我们报告了一个家族,其GBA1基因存在杂合的p.Pro454Leu变异。该变异与一种严重且快速进展的路易体神经退行性疾病相关,该疾病在临床和病理上具有多样性。致病性预测算法和进化分析表明p.Pro454Leu是有害的。
