The presence ofGBA1gene mutations increases risk for Parkinson's disease (PD), but the pathogenic mechanisms ofGBA1associated PD remain unknown. Given that impaired α-synuclein turnover is a hallmark of PD pathogenesis and cathepsin D is a key enzyme involved in α-synuclein degradation in neuronal cells, we have examined the relationship of glucocerebrosidase (GCase), cathepsin D and monomeric α-synuclein in human neural crest stem cell derived dopaminergic neurons. We found that normal activity of GCase is necessary for cathepsin D to perform its function of monomeric α-synuclein removal from neurons.GBA1mutations lead to a lower level of cathepsin D protein and activity, and higher level of monomeric α-synuclein in neurons. WhenGBA1mutant neurons were treated with GCase replacement or chaperone therapy; cathepsin D protein levels and activity were restored, and monomeric α-synuclein decreased. When cathepsin D was inhibited, GCase replacement failed to reduce monomeric α-synuclein levels inGBA1mutant neurons. These data indicate thatGBA1gene mutations increase monomeric α-synuclein levels via an effect on lysosomal cathepsin D in neurons.
