Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucosylsphingosine is a cytotoxic compound. Accumulation of glucosylsphingosine in brain and other tissues occurs in patients with Gaucher disease, which is an inherited deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase, which converts glucosylsphingosine to glucose and sphingosine.

Gaucher disease is a glycolipid storage disorder characterized by accumulation of glucocerebroside in the liver, spleen, and bones, and caused by a deficiency of glucocerebrosidase. Glucocerebrosidase cDNA has been cloned and sequenced, and much has been learned about the synthesis

Journal of human genetics, 62(8), 763-768 (2017-03-31)
Gaucher disease (GD) is an inherited metabolic disorder that involves accumulation of glycolipid glucocerebroside in monocyte-macrophage cells, which can result in multiple organ damage. Enzyme replacement and substrate reduction therapies have improved the potential for early diagnosis and treatment. Determining

In Gaucher disease type 1 (GD1), genetic deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase results in the accumulation of glucosylceramide and glucosylsphingosine (GlcSph), that underlie chronic lipid-mediated metabolic inflammation. An important age-related phenotype is high risk of monoclonal gammopathy (MG), including multiple myeloma.

Molecular genetics and metabolism, 83(1-2), 6-15 (2004-10-07)
Gaucher disease, the recessively inherited deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase and the most common sphingolipidosis, has both non-neurological and neuronopathic forms and a continuum of diverse clinical manifestations. Studies of genotype-phenotype correlations reveal significant genotypic heterogeneity among clinically similar patients
