Background So far, mutations in genes encoding lysosomal enzymes have been associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disease caused by alpha-galactosidase A (α-GAL) deficiency, leading to deposition of globotriaosylceramide in the nervous system and other organs. We aimed to screen for FD a case series of PD patients from Southern Italy and to review the literature. Methods One hundred and forty-four consecutive unrelated PD subjects were enrolled. The α-GAL activity was measured in all men and, in case of pathological values, subsequent determination of globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) and GLA gene sequencing were also performed. All the women underwent GLA gene sequencing. Results α-GAL levels resulted low in fifteen men, whereas lyso-Gb3 testing showed values within the reference range in all of them. GLA gene variants were not detected in any tested subjects. One pathological study, six case series, and five case reports are currently reported in literature. Conclusions The few studies reviewed are heterogeneous, and the results are controversial. An unknown significance variant in GLA gene was detected in PD patients in one large study, whereas decreased α-GAL activity was observed in PD subjects in two other researches, but without confirmation by lyso-Gb3 assessment or genetic analysis. Vascular parkinsonism was associated to FD in five case reports. We found no association between PD and FD in our population. However, it is not possible to draw definitive conclusions due to limited sample size. Furthermore, controls would have been missing in case of a positive finding.
