Fabry disease exacerbates renal interstitial fibrosis after unilateral ureteral obstruction via impaired autophagy and enhanced apoptosis [PDF]
Background Fabry disease is a rare X-linked genetic lysosomal disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene encoding alpha-galactosidase A. Despite some data showing that profibrotic and proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress could be involved in ...

Phenotypic characteristics of the p.Asn215Ser (p.N215S) GLA mutation in male and female patients with Fabry disease: A multicenter Fabry Registry study. [PDF]
BackgroundThe p.Asn215Ser or p.N215S GLA variant has been associated with late-onset cardiac variant of Fabry disease.MethodsTo expand on the scarce phenotype data, we analyzed natural history data from 125 p.N215S patients (66 females, 59 males ...

Fabry Disease in Women: Genetic Basis, Available Biomarkers, and Clinical Manifestations
Fabry Disease (FD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene on the X chromosome, leading to a deficiency in α-galactosidase A (AGAL) enzyme activity.

Fabry disease – a multisystemic disease with gastrointestinal manifestations
Nonspecific gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, such as postprandial cramping pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting are typical symptoms for irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease, but may also be the first symptoms of Fabry disease (FD).

Chaperone Therapy in Fabry Disease
Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal multisystem storage disorder induced by a mutation in the alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) gene. Reduced activity or deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A (AGAL) leads to escalating storage of intracellular ...
