Molecular, Metabolic and Inflammatory Patterns Involved in Pathogenesis of Anderson-Fabry Disease [PDF]
Anderson–Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the GLA gene, resulting in deficient α-galactosidase A activity and progressive accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and its derivative lyso-Gb3

Role of standard echocardiography in Anderson–Fabry disease [PDF]
Cardiac involvement strongly impacts prognosis in patients with Anderson–Fabry disease (AFD). All cardiac structures, such as the left ventricle and the left atrium, the aorta, the right sections, and the heart valves can be affected by morphological and

Neurological complications of Anderson-Fabry disease [PDF]
Characteristic clinical manifestations of AFD such as acroparesthesias, angiokeratoma, corneal opacity, hypo/ and anhidrosis, gastrointestinal symptoms, renal and cardiac dysfunctions can occur in male and female patients, although heterozygous females ...

Prevalence of Anderson-Fabry disease in male patients with late onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background-Although studies have suggested that "late-onset" hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) may be caused by sarcomeric protein gene mutations, the cause of HCM in the majority of patients is unknown.

Anderson–Fabry Disease: A New Piece of the Lysosomal Puzzle in Parkinson Disease? [PDF]
Anderson–Fabry disease (AFD) is an inherited lysosomal storage disorder characterized by a composite and multisystemic clinical phenotype and frequent involvement of the central nervous system (CNS).

Pathologic substrate of gastropathy in Anderson-Fabry disease [PDF]
In both classic and late-onset AFD, mutations of the GLA gene cause deficient activity of the alpha-galactosidase enzyme resulting in intracellular accumulation of the undigested substrate.

An Unusual Case of Anderson-Fabry Disease: Case Report [PDF]
Angiokeratoma is a group of capillary malformations characterized by the formation of variably sized dark red hyperkeratotic papules. Initially, it was believed that angiokeratoma corporis diffusum was a telltale sign of Anderson-Fabry disease;

Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair in a Patient With Anderson-Fabry Disease [PDF]
Severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) is one cardiac manifestation of the multiorgan metabolic enzyme disorder Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD). Although DMR is normally managed surgically, many patients with AFD are unsuitable for this.

Cardiac involvement in Anderson–Fabry disease. The role of advanced echocardiography [PDF]
Anderson–Fabry disease (AFD) is a lysosomal storage disorder, depending on defects in alpha galactosidase A activity, due to a mutation in the galactosidase alpha gene. Cardiovascular involvement represents the leading cause of death in AFD.

A Non-Invasive Technique to Unveil Renal Implications in Anderson–Fabry Disease [PDF]
Background: Anderson–Fabry disease (AFD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a deficiency of α-galactosidase A activity and the accumulation of glycosphingolipids in tissues, which leads to multiorgan damage.
