Loss of lysosomal GCase causes impairment of ALR and maturation of endosomes, perhaps due to changes in lipids and/or cholesterol. Over time this leads to a decrease in the functional pool of lysosomes in the cell impairing autophagy and resulting in the cellular accumulation of α-synuclein and increased release of α-synuclein contributing to PD pathology.
