Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by deficiency of arylsulfatase A (ARSA). Heterozygous carriers of disease‐causing variants and individuals harbouring pseudodeficiency alleles in the ARSA gene ...

Maroteaux—Lamy syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis type VI) is an orphan genetic disease caused by mutations in the arylsulfatase B gene (ARSB), which encodes the lysosomal enzyme arylsulfatase B (ASB).

Arylsulfatase A, a genetic modifier of Parkinson's disease, is an α-synuclein chaperone.
Mutations in lysosomal genes increase the risk of neurodegenerative diseases, as is the case for Parkinson's disease. Here, we found that pathogenic and protective mutations in arylsulfatase A (ARSA), a gene responsible for metachromatic leukodystrophy ...

Metachromatic leukodystrophy: A case report
Metachromatic leuk:odystrophy (MLD) is a rare neurometabolic disease caused by the deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A .Deficiency of this enzyme results in intralysosomal storage ofsphingolipid , cerebroside 3-sulfates (sulfatides), which are ...

Infantile Metachromatic Leukodystrophy: Case Report
Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) is commonly characterized by the accumulation of sulfatide in various organs, including the central nervous system, leading to neurological and mental symptoms.

The Chihuahua dog: A new animal model for neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis CLN7 disease? [PDF]
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are a group of incurable lysosomal storage disorders characterized by neurodegeneration and accumulation of lipopigments mainly within the neurons. We studied two littermate Chihuahua dogs presenting with progressive

WIPI1, BAG1 and PEX3 autophagy-related genes are relevant melanoma markers [PDF]
ROS and oxidative stress may promote autophagy; on the other hand, autophagy may help reduce oxidative damages. According to the known interplay of ROS, autophagy, and melanoma onset, we hypothesized that autophagy-related genes (ARGs) may represent ...

Arylsulfatase A (ASA) in Parkinson’s Disease: From Pathogenesis to Biomarker Potential
Parkinson’s disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer’s disease, is a clinically heterogeneous disorder, with obscure etiology and no disease-modifying therapy to date.

Synaptobrevin cleavage by the tetanus toxin light chain is linked to the inhibition of exocytosis in chromaffin cells [PDF]
Exocytosis of secretory granules by adrenal chromaffin cells is blocked by the tetanus toxin light chain in a zinc specific manner. Here we show that cellular synaptobrevin is almost completely degraded by the tetanus toxin light chain within 15 min.
