Clinical periodontal diagnosis

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Neuropathological Features of Gaucher Disease and Gaucher Disease with Parkinsonism

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Deficient acid β-glucocerebrosidase activity due to biallelic mutations in GBA1 results in Gaucher disease (GD). Patients with this lysosomal storage disorder exhibit a wide range of associated manifestations, spanning from virtually asymptomatic adults to infants with severe neurodegeneration.

Gaucher-like Cells in Thalassemia Intermedia: Is It a Challenge?

open access: yesDiseases, 2023
We describe two cases of thalassemia intermedia (TI) patients with the presence of Gaucher-like cells in hematopoietic tissue biopsies, raising diagnostic dilemmas. The first is a 56-year-old female with bone lesions, splenomegaly, hypochromic microcytic

Nrf2/NOX2 Pathway Dysregulation and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Gaucher Disease-Associated Parkinsonism: Insights Into a Potential Therapeutic Target. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Mol Med
ABSTRACT Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, yet its underlying genetic and molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Variants in the GBA gene, encoding the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, are not only responsible for Gaucher disease (GD) but also represent a significant genetic risk factor ...

Reversal of life-threatening hepatopulmonary syndrome in Gaucher disease by imiglucerase enzyme replacement therapy

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2019
Advanced liver disease complicated by hepatopulmonary syndrome is a recognized complication of Gaucher disease. Macrophage-targeted, recombinant enzyme replacement therapy is effective in reversing clinical manifestations attributed to the accumulation ...

Cytokines in Gaucher disease: Role in the pathogenesis of bone and pulmonary disease

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2015
Gaucher disease (GD) is the most frequently encountered lysosomal storage disease caused by inborn defects of the membrane-bound lysosomal enzyme, acid β-glucosidase or glucocerebrosidase.

Gaucher disease and the synucleinopathies: refining the relationship

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2012
Gaucher disease (OMIM 230800, 230900, 231000), the most common lysosomal storage disorder, is due to a deficiency in the enzyme glucocerebrosidase. Gaucher patients display a wide spectrum of clinical presentation, with hepatosplenomegaly, haematological

Glucosylsphingosine Is a Highly Sensitive and Specific Biomarker for Primary Diagnostic and Follow-Up Monitoring in Gaucher Disease in a Non-Jewish, Caucasian Cohort of Gaucher Disease Patients

open access: yes, 2013
Gaucher disease (GD) is the most common lysosomal storage disorder (LSD). Based on a deficient β-glucocerebrosidase it leads to an accumulation of glucosylceramide. Standard diagnostic procedures include measurement of enzyme activity, genetic testing as
