Description
Neuronopathic Gaucher disease (nGD) manifests as severe neurological symptoms in patients with no effective treatment available. Ryanodine receptors (Ryrs) are a family of calcium release channels on intracellular stores. The goal of this study is to determine if Ryrs are potential targets for nGD treatment. A nGD cell model (CBE-N2a) was created by inhibiting acid beta-glucosidase (GCase) in N2a cells with conduritol B epoxide (CBE). Enhanced cytosolic calcium in CBE-N2a cells was blocked by either ryanodine or dantrolene, antagonists of Ryrs and by Genz-161, a glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor, suggesting substrate-mediated
