Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency in France: a retrospective survival study [PDF]
Background Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) or Niemann–Pick disease types A, A/B, and B is a progressive, life-limiting, autosomal recessive disorder caused by sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1 (SMPD1) gene mutations.

The impact of sphingomyelin on the pathophysiology and treatment response to olipudase alfa in acid sphingomyelinase deficiency [PDF]
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a rare progressive genetic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the SMPD1 gene causing low or absent activity of the enzyme acid sphingomyelinase, resulting in subsequent accumulation of its substrate ...

Case Report: Two years of compassionate use with Olipudase-alfa in a child with neurovisceral acid sphingomyelinase deficiency [PDF]
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a rare, progressive lysosomal storage disorder resulting from a deficiency in acid sphingomyelinase, leading to sphingomyelin accumulation and multi-organ damage. ASMD presents a broad phenotypic spectrum with a

A challenging case of ASMD (acid sphingomyelinase deficiency): A severe interstitial lung disorder in an asplenic patient [PDF]
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder with multisystemic involvement. We report a 68-year-old asplenic man with late-onset ASMD and severe interstitial lung disease, chronic respiratory failure, and markedly reduced

Targeting CD44 reverses sphingomyelin-induced oligodendrocyte maturation arrest in acid sphingomyelinase deficiency [PDF]
Loss-of-function mutations in the smpd1 gene cause acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD). Early neurodegeneration and lethality characterize its infantile neurovisceral form (type A).
