abstract = {Background: Alterations in the GBA gene $(NM_000157.3)$ are
the most important genetic risk factor for Parkinson's
disease (PD). Biallelic GBA mutations cause the lysosomal
storage disorder Gaucher's disease. The GBA variants p.E365K
and p.T408M are associated with PD but not with Gaucher's
disease. The pathophysiological role of these variants needs
to be further explored.Objective: This study analyzed
clinical, neuropsychological, metabolic, and neuroimaging
phenotypes of patients with PD carrying the GBA variants
p.E365K and p.T408M.Methods: GBA was sequenced in 56
patients with mid-stage PD. Carriers of GBA variants were
compared with noncarriers regarding clinical history and
symptoms, neuropsychological features, metabolomics, and
multimodal neuroimaging. Blood plasma gas chromatography
coupled to mass spectrometry, 6-[18 F]fluoro-L-Dopa positron
emission tomography (PET), [18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose PET, and
resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging were
performed.Results: Sequence analysis detected 13
heterozygous GBA variant carriers (7 with p.E365K, 6 with
p.T408M). One patient carried a GBA mutation (p.N409S) and
was excluded. Clinical history and symptoms were not
significantly different between groups. Global cognitive
performance was lower in variant carriers. Metabolomic group
differences were suggestive of more severe PD-related
alterations in carriers versus noncarriers. Both PET scans
showed signs of a more advanced disease; [18
F]fluorodeoxyglucose PET and functional magnetic resonance
imaging showed similarities with Lewy body dementia and PD
dementia in carriers.Conclusions: This is the first study to
comprehensively assess (neuro-)biological phenotypes of GBA
variants in PD. Metabolomics and neuroimaging detected more
significant group differences than clinical and behavioral
evaluation. These alterations could be promising to monitor
effects of disease-modifying treatments targeting
glucocerebrosidase metabolism. © 2020 The Authors. Movement
