The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2015
The lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene, localized in X chromosome. Deficient enzymatic activity of the product of this gene, the lysosomal hydrolase α-galactosidase A, leads to ...

Fabry pedigree analysis: A successful program for targeted genetic approach

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2019
Background Fabry disease (FD) is an X‐linked disorder of glycosphingolipid catabolism caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha‐galactosidase A (GLA). FD is still an underdiagnosed disorder worldwide.

Frequency of de novo mutations in Japanese patients with Fabry disease

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2014
We examined alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) gene mutations in 74 Japanese families with Fabry disease (FD) to determine the frequency of de novo mutations.

Dysregulated phosphatidylglycerol metabolism in dorsal root ganglia contributes to pain hypersensitivity in a mouse model of Fabry disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease
Fabry disease (FD) is a genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A. Neuropathic pain is a hallmark of FD, beginning in early childhood and persisting throughout life.

A Human Stem Cell Model of Fabry Disease Implicates LIMP-2 Accumulation in Cardiomyocyte Pathology

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Here, we have used patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) and gene-editing technology to study the cardiac-related molecular and functional consequences of mutations in GLA causing the lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD),

SGLT2 Inhibitors and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With Fabry Disease: Observations From a Federated Research Network

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Fabry disease (FD) is frequently complicated by renal impairment and cardiovascular events; however, evidence on sodium–glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in this population is scarce. Accordingly, we assessed the association between SGLT2i exposure and cardiovascular outcomes in adults with FD. Methods We conducted

A new approach to identifying patients with elevated risk for Fabry disease using a machine learning algorithm

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Fabry disease (FD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by glycosphingolipid accumulation and progressive damage across multiple organ systems.

Brillouin–Raman micro‐mapping of silicone‐hydrogel contact lenses: Revealing chemical and mechanical heterogeneities

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Joint Brillouin–Raman micro‐spectroscopy (BRMS) enables simultaneous, non‐destructive characterisation of the mechanical and chemical properties of soft materials at the micrometre scale, combining GHz‐range viscoelastic information from acoustic modes with the vibrational fingerprint of molecular species.
