    Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide


    Figure 1: Paper cover image

    Decreased GCase activity has been described in the brain tissue of PD patients with and without GBA1 mutations, and in healthy aging subjects, but a recent study showed no association between total GCase activity and PD risk sex


    Hereby, Danielle te Vruchte et al.


    They analyzed plasma GSLs and glucoglyceramide (GlcCer) using two normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography methods; extracting clinical demographic data


    Figure 2: The results of the paper

    They analyzed 80 PD subjects and 25 HCs


    PD patients had higher levels of GlcCer, GD1b, Gb4, GalNAcGA1, and series b than HCs; PD patients had lower levels of total GSLs, GT1b, GM1a, GM3, GM2, and series a than HCs


    Results were similar after excluding some GBA1 mutation carriers


    The significance of this study lies in the discovery that multiple GSL abnormalities in plasma were detected in patients with and without changes in GlcCer, suggesting a broader shift in lipid homeostasis
