Gaucher disease: single gene molecular characterization of one-hundred Indian patients reveals novel variants and the most prevalent mutation

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background Gaucher disease is a rare pan-ethnic, lysosomal storage disorder resulting due to beta-Glucosidase (GBA1) gene defect. This leads to the glucocerebrosidase enzyme deficiency and an increased accumulation of undegraded glycolipid ...

The Morphogenesis of Gaucher Cells Investigated by Electron Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1969
Abstract The ultrastructure of Gaucher cells in the spleen and in the liver from a case of juvenile type of Gaucher’s disease is described. Different types of cytoplasmic bodies are observed in Gaucher cells. These are surrounded by a single smooth membrane and contain tubular or ring-like structures that in the smaller bodies are set in

Myopathy in Gaucher Disease

open access: yes, 2011
Gaucher disease is a recessively inherited lysosomal storage disorder, caused by deficiency of glucocerebrosidase activity. Affected individuals usually present with hepatosplenomegaly, anaemia, thrombocytopenia, and skeletal diseases.

Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Characterize neuroimaging findings in foetuses with anaemia and identify associated risk factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with foetal anaemia (defined as haemoglobin > 2 standard deviations below the gestational age mean) confirmed by foetal blood sampling (FBS) and treated with intrauterine transfusion (IUT)

Flow cytometric assay of respiratory burst capacity in peripheral blood monocytes of Gaucher type 1 patients [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry, 2014
Background: There is an apparently increased tendency toward infections in patients with Gaucher disease, possibly due to defective neutrophil function rather than a decreased neutrophil count. Since macrophages are the main cell type affected in Gaucher

Imaging of non-neuronopathic Gaucher disease: recent advances in quantitative imaging and comprehensive assessment of disease involvement

open access: yesInsights into Imaging, 2019
Gaucher disease is an inherited metabolic disorder resulting in deficiency of lysosomal enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase causing the accumulation of abnormal macrophages (“Gaucher cells”) within multiple organs, most conspicuously affecting the liver, spleen,

Lentiviral vectors for gene therapy of Gaucher disease

open access: yes, 2015
Gaucher disease (GD), a recessive disorder characterised by hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia and skeletal complications, is caused by deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GC).

Fatal respiratory failure caused by pulmonary infiltration by pseudo-Gaucher cells

open access: yes, 1992
Pseudo-Gaucher cells are reticuloendothelial cells that are found in several diseases. We report a case of pulmonary tuberculosis in which extensive pulmonary involvement with these cells resulted in fatal respiratory ...

Elevated plasma glucosylsphingosine in Gaucher disease: relation to phenotype, storage cell markers, and therapeutic response

open access: yes, 2011
Gaucher disease, caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, leads to prominent glucosylceramide accumulation in lysosomes of tissue macrophages (Gaucher cells).

Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.
