Dementia with lewy bodies: GBA1 mutations are associated with cerebrospinal fluid alpha-synuclein profile.
BACKGROUND: Patients with dementia with Lewy bodies reveal a variable pathology including alpha-synuclein, amyloid-beta, and Tau. Mutations in GBA1 are specifically associated with synucleinopathies. PD patients with GBA1 mutations show reduced CSF levels of total alpha-synuclein.
OBJECTIVE: Whether GBA1 mutations are associated with a CSF alpha-synuclein profile in dementia with Lewy bodies.
METHODS: Screening of the GBA1 gene and single-nucleotide polymorphisms in SNCA rs356220, APOE rs429358, and MAPT rs1052587 as well as CSF levels of total alpha-synuclein, amyloid-beta1-42 , total-Tau, phospho-Tau, and neurofilament light chain were assessed in 100 dementia with Lewy bodies and 39 controls cross-sectionally.
RESULTS: Severity of GBA1 mutations was associated with a younger age at onset and higher prevalence of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder. CSF levels of total alpha-synuclein were lowest in DLBGBA_pathogenic compared to DLBGBA_mild and DLBGBA_wildtype .
CONCLUSION: Similar to PD, pathogenic GBA1 mutations seem to be associated with CSF alpha-synuclein profiles in dementia with Lewy bodies. That might be useful for patient stratification for specific alpha-synuclein-lowering compounds. © 2019 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
