Elevated urine bis(monoacylglycerol)phosphate (BMP) levels have been found in gain-of-kinase function LRRK2 G2019S mutation carriers. Here, we have expanded urine BMP analysis to other Parkinson's disease (PD) associated mutations and found them to be consistently elevated in carriers of LRRK2 G2019S and R1441G/C as well as VPS35 D620N mutations. Urine BMP levels are promising biomarkers for patient stratification and potentially target engagement in clinical trials of emerging targeted PD therapies.
在激酶功能获得性LRRK2 G2019S突变携带者中发现尿双(单酰甘油)磷酸(BMP)水平升高。在此,我们将尿BMP分析扩展至其他帕金森病(PD)相关突变,发现其在LRRK2 G2019S、R1441G/C以及VPS35 D620N突变携带者中持续升高。尿BMP水平有望成为患者分层的生物标志物,并可能在新兴靶向PD疗法的临床试验中用于评估靶点参与情况。
