Oral Migalastat HCl Leads to Greater Systemic Exposure and Tissue Levels of Active α-Galactosidase A in Fabry Patients when Co-Administered with Infused Agalsidase. [PDF]
UnlabelledMigalastat HCl (AT1001, 1-Deoxygalactonojirimycin) is an investigational pharmacological chaperone for the treatment of α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) deficiency, which leads to Fabry disease, an X-linked, lysosomal storage disorder. The currently

Thirteen year retrospective review of the spectrum of inborn errors of metabolism presenting in a tertiary center in Saudi Arabia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are individually rare; however, they are collectively common. More than 600 human diseases caused by inborn errors of metabolism are now recognized, and this number is constantly increasing as new concepts ...

Glycomimetic-based pharmacological chaperones for lysosomal storage disorders: lessons from Gaucher, GM1-gangliosidosis and Fabry diseases [PDF]
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are often caused by mutations that destabilize native folding and impair the trafficking of enzymes, leading to premature endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation, deficiencies of specific hydrolytic functions ...

Knockout of lysosomal enzyme-targeting gene causes abnormalities in mouse pup isolation calls [PDF]
Humans lacking a working copy of the GNPTAB gene suffer from the metabolic disease Mucolipidosis type II (MLII). MLII symptoms include mental retardation, skeletal deformities and cartilage defects as well as a speech delay with most subjects unable to ...

Assessment of a targeted resequencing assay as a support tool in the diagnosis of lysosomal storage disorders [PDF]
BACKGROUND: With over 50 different disorders and a combined incidence of up to 1/3000 births, lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) constitute a major public health problem and place an enormous burden on affected individuals and their families.

L-Arginine Ameliorates Defective Autophagy in GM2 Gangliosidoses by mTOR Modulation
Aims: Tay–Sachs and Sandhoff diseases (GM2 gangliosidosis) are autosomal recessive disorders of lysosomal function that cause progressive neurodegeneration in infants and young children. Impaired hydrolysis catalysed by β-hexosaminidase A (HexA) leads to

Inborn errors of metabolism: a clinical overview [PDF]
CONTEXT: Inborn errors of metabolism cause hereditary metabolic diseases (HMD) and classically they result from the lack of activity of one or more specific enzymes or defects in the transportation of proteins.

GM1-gangliosidosis is a progressive neurodegenerative glycosphingolipidosis resulting from a GLB1 gene mutation causing a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme β-galactosidase, which leads to the abnormal accumulation of GM1 ganglioside in the central ...

Gangliosidosis gml juvenil como causa de regresión en el neurodesarrollo: reporte de caso
La gangliosidosis GM1 es ocasionada por deficiencia en la actividad catalítica de la enzima lisosomal beta-galacto-sidasa, dando origen a la acumulación del esfingolípido conocido como gangliósido GM1.
