β-Galactosidase Deficiency in Colombia

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2015
β-Galactosidase (BGal) is the first enzyme involved in the catabolism of sphingolipids. Two pathologies have been directly associated with its deficiency: GM1 gangliosidosis and Morquio B. Morquio B is among the rarest types of mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS)

Synthesis of a New β-Galactosidase Inhibitor Displaying Pharmacological Chaperone Properties for GM1 Gangliosidosis

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
GM1 gangliosidosis is a rare lysosomal disease caused by the deficiency of the enzyme β-galactosidase (β-Gal; GLB1; E.C. 3.2.1.23), responsible for the hydrolysis of terminal β-galactosyl residues from GM1 ganglioside, glycoproteins, and ...

Brain β-Galactosidase and Gm1 Gangliosidosis [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 1974
Extract: Several properties of β-galactosidase obtained from brains of controls and patients with Gm1 gangliosidosis types I and II were studied. The pH optimum of β-galactosidase was 4 in both fetal and control brain. In contrast, the pH optimum of brain β-galactosidase in patients with either type I or type II Gm1 gangliosidosis was 3. The residual β-

Brain ceramide hexosides in Tay-Sachs disease and generalized gangliosidosis (GM1-gangliosidosis)

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1967
The carbohydrate composition was determined for ceramide hexosides isolated from brains of patients with Tay-Sachs disease and generalized gangliosidosis (hereby named GM1-gangliosidosis).Gray matter of patients with each disease showed a characteristic ...

Risk of hypertensive disorders in pregnancies with non‐immune hydrops fetalis and single fetal effusions

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 1, Issue 4, July 2025.
Abstract Introduction Hydrops fetalis carries high risks of morbidity and mortality for the fetus, as well as obstetric risks such as hypertensive disorders, or mirror syndrome, for the pregnant person. We aimed to characterize the prevalence and types of hypertensive disorders diagnosed in pregnancies with non‐immune hydrops fetalis and single ...
