简要总结
Recent studies have has shown that magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) can provide validated neuronal markers in patients with Type 1 GD (GD1) who are on stable therapy. However, alterations in neurometabolites in adult patients with GD3, who have established neurological involvement, are not well understood. The goal of this study is to characterize neurometabolite profiles in adult patients with GD3 using MRS to identify novel biomarkers that can demonstrate treatment response. Additionally, a secondary aim is to evaluate relationships between neurometabolites and disease parameters, such as genotype, enzyme levels and Gaucher disease (GD) biomarkers.

主要结局
Neurometabolite profile
时间窗: baseline
Characterize neurometabolite profiles of up to 18 metabolites including N-acetyl aspartate (a validated biomarker of neuronal integrity), glutamate and GABA (neurotransmitters), myo-inositol, glutamine, lactate and choline (inflammation biomarkers) and glutathione (anti-oxidant) in individuals with GD3.
