BACKGROUND: Mutations of the Glucocerebrosidase (GBA) gene are the most common genetic risk factor yet discovered for Parkinson's Disease (PD), being found in about 5-14% of Caucasian patients.
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess motor and non-motor symptoms (NMS) in patients with GBA-related PD (GBA-PD) in comparison with idiopathic PD (iPD) subjects using standardized and validated scales.
METHODS: Eleven (4 M, 7 F) patients with GBA-PD and 22 iPD patients, selected from the same cohort and matched for gender, age, and disease duration, were enrolled. The disease severity was assessed by Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-section III, gait disorder and falls by Freezing of Gait Questionnaire, and motor fluctuations by Wearing off questionnaire. NMS were evaluated using the following scales: Mini-Mental State Examination and extended neuropsychological battery, if required, Non-Motor Symptoms Scale, SCOPA-AUT Questionnaire, Apathy Evaluation Scale, Beck Depression Inventory, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Restless Legs Syndrome Rating Scale, REM Sleep Behavior Disorder Screening Questionnaire, and Questionnaire for Impulsive-Compulsive Disorders in Parkinson's disease.
RESULTS: GBA-PD patients showed a more severe and rapidly progressive disease, and more frequent positive family history for PD, akinetic-rigid phenotype, postural instability, dementia, and psychosis in comparison to iPD. Two of three subjects carrying L444P mutation presented with early dementia. We also found a higher occurrence of fatigue, diurnal sleepiness, and intolerance to heat/cold in the carriers group.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm that NMS and a more severe and faster disease course more frequently occur among GBA-PD patients in comparison to iPD.
