Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency: A Clinical and Immunological Perspective [PDF]
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a lysosomal storage disease caused by deficient activity of acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) enzyme, leading to the accumulation of varying degrees of sphingomyelin. Lipid storage leads to foam cell infiltration in tissues, and clinical features including hepatosplenomegaly, pulmonary insufficiency and in some ...

Prevalence of Cancer in Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency [PDF]
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is an inherited lysosomal disease characterised by a diffuse accumulation of sphingomyelin that cannot be catabolised into ceramide and phosphocholine. We studied the incidence of cancer in ASMD patients. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of the adult chronic visceral ASMD patients in our cohort ...

Optimization of a Histopathological Biomarker for Sphingomyelin Accumulation in Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency [PDF]
Niemann-Pick disease (types A and B), or acid sphingomyelinase deficiency, is an inherited deficiency of acid sphingomyelinase, resulting in intralysosomal accumulation of sphingomyelin in cells throughout the body, particularly within those of the reticuloendothelial system. These cellular changes result in hepatosplenomegaly and pulmonary infiltrates

Recommendations for clinical monitoring of patients with acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD)
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD), a rare lysosomal storage disease, results from mutations in SMPD1, the gene encoding acid sphingomyelinase (ASM). As a result, sphingomyelin accumulates in multiple organs including spleen, liver, lung, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and in the most severe form, in the CNS and peripheral nerves.
