Combined replacement effects of human modified β-hexosaminidase B and GM2 activator protein on GM2 gangliosidoses fibroblasts [PDF]
GM2 gangliosidoses are autosomal recessive lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) caused by mutations in the HEXA, HEXB and GM2A genes, which encode the human lysosomal β-hexosaminidase (Hex) α- and β-subunits, and GM2 activator protein (GM2A), respectively ...

Myelin Deficits and Intravenous Gene Therapy in Feline Sandhoff Disease [PDF]
Sandhoff Disease (SD) is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disease (LSD) that results in the death of children before 4 years of age. Because there are no FDA-approved therapies available, current treatment strategies are limited to palliation. SD is

Phenotypic characterisation of human iPSC neuronal models of GM2 gangliosidoses [PDF]
Gangliosides are crucial components on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane of many cells, especially neurons. Their functions are broad and varied but their high abundance in neurons leaves these cells especially vulnerable to the effects of their ...

Dysregulation of NLRP3 inflammasome and promotion of disease by IL-1β in a murine model of Sandhoff disease [PDF]
Sandhoff disease (SD) is a progressive neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder characterized by GM2 ganglioside accumulation as a result of mutations in the HEXB gene, which encodes the β-subunit of the enzyme β-hexosaminidase.
