Homozygous mutations in GBA1 cause the most common lysosomal storage disease (LSD), namely, Gaucher disease (GD). Mutations (homozygous or heterozygous) in GBA1 are also the highest genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), 1 although the mechanistic basis for this relationship is not known. We now suggest, based on well-documented data in some cases and on more anecdotal data in others, that there is a resemblance in some nonmotor symptoms (NMSs) between PD and LSDs. This may indicate that brain regions associated with NMSs are more vulnerable to changes in lysosomal activity and α-synuclein deposition as a result of lysosomal dysfunction. NMSs in PD patients with an LSD mutation have been mainly examined clinically in individuals heterozygous for GBA1 mutations rather than in mutations for other genes that cause an LSD, as the latter have only been recently identified as risk factors for PD. 2 It is important to distinguish between LSD carriers and patients in terms of PD-related NMSs because LSD carriers do not display overt LSD symptoms, although LSD carriers do affect susceptibility toward the development of neurological diseases such as PD. 1 Indeed, a recent study on Niemann-Pick (NPC1) carriers suggested heterozygosity is a high risk factor for late-onset neurodegeneration. 3 The significant overlap in NMSs between PD and LSDs (documented with appropriate references in Table 1) suggests that NMSs may be the cause of at least 1 common trait between these apparently disparate diseases. LSDs are rare, and patients often succumb at a young age. Nevertheless, reports of NMSs in late-onset or chronic forms of LSDs suggest a similarity between the presentation of NMSs in LSDs and PD. For the purpose of this literature review, we chose the most prominent NMSs, namely, olfactory disorders, sleep disorders, mood disorders, psychosis, dysautonomia, and cognitive impairment. We excluded cognitive impairment and mental retardation in LSDs, as these are not symptoms in PD patients. We performed a literature search using the National Library of Medicine database (PubMed). However, it should be noted that the terminology used to describe NMSs in LSDs is often rather vague; thus, direct comparison with NMSs in PD is difficult and requires careful analysis of the described symptoms. Moreover, because LSDs are rare, large clinical studies for many of them are not available or are limited to a small number of patients. The presence of NMSs such as olfactory or autonomic dysfunction may be overlooked because they are usually not the main symptom. Thus, for LSD patients, we focus mainly, but not exclusively, on GD and GM2 gangliosidosis, as these 2 are the best studied with regard to NMSs.
