Juvenile and adult metachromatic leukodystrophy: partial restoration of arylsulfatase A (cerebroside sulfatase) activity by inhibitors of thiol proteinases. [PDF]
Arylsulfatase A polypeptides were examined in cultured fibroblasts from a patient with juvenile metachromatic leukodystrophy and three patients with the adult form of the disease, with the aid of metabolic labeling and immunoprecipitation. The mutant cells were severely deficient in the arylsulfatase polypeptides.

Urine specimens from two sibs affected with cerebroside sulfatase activator deficiency were examined to ascertain whether the deficiency of the supplementary activator protein required for the enzymatic hydrolysis of cerebroside sulfate was also evident in urine.

Exploration of phytoconstituents of Medhya Rasayana herbs to identify potential inhibitors for cerebroside sulfotransferase through high-throughput screening [PDF]
Cerebroside sulfotransferase (CST) is a key enzyme in sulfatide biosynthesis and regulation of the myelin sheath in the nervous system. To counter sulfatide accumulation with the deficiency of aryl sulfatase A, CST is considered a target protein in ...

Very low levels of arylsulfatase A (ASA) have been found in the leukocytes of healthy members of a metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) family. The cerebroside sulfate sulfatase (CSS) activities in the same individuals are about 10% of the control level. Arguments favoring a dominant mutation different from that of classical MLD are presented.

Role of sulfatide in normal and pathological cells and tissues
Sulfatide is 3-O-sulfogalactosylceramide that is synthesized by two transferases (ceramide galactosyltransferase and cerebroside sulfotransferase) from ceramide and is specifically degraded by a sulfatase (arylsulfatase A). Sulfatide is a multifunctional
