Seizures and electroencephalographic findings in inborn errors of metabolism: Clues to differential diagnosis in the neonatal period, infancy, childhood and adolescence, and review of the literature

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 745-802, October 2025.
Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Lysosomal Diseases and Neuropsychiatry: Opportunities to Rebalance the Mind

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020
The brain is the physical organ of the mind but efforts to understand mental illness within a neurobiological context have hitherto been unavailing. Mental disorders (anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia) affect about one fifth of the

Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021–2022

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 213-453, May/June 2025.
Abstract The use of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022.

Improved outcome of N-butyldeoxygalactonojirimycin-mediated substrate reduction therapy in a mouse model of Sandhoff disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2004
Sandhoff disease is a severe neurodegenerative glycosphingolipid (GSL) lysosomal storage disorder, currently without treatment options. One therapeutic approach under investigation is substrate reduction therapy (SRT).

GM1 - gangliosidosis in a Nigerian infant: A case report

open access: yesNigerian Journal of Paediatrics, 2021
Gangliosidoses belong to the group of genetic lipid metabolism disorders, caused by defects of lysosome enzymes, inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Gangliosidosis GM1 is caused by the deficiency of the acid beta galactosidase (GLB11) resulting in

Patient and caregiver perspectives on burden of disease manifestations in late-onset Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff diseases

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2020
Background The GM2 gangliosidoses (GM2), Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff diseases, are rare, autosomal recessive genetic disorders caused by mutations in the lysosomal enzyme β-hexosaminidase A (HEXA) or β-hexosaminidase B (HEXB) genes, respectively.
