Spontaneous Accumulation of Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) in Proximal Renal Tubules in an ICR Mouse
This report describes spontaneous cytoplasmic vacuolation in the proximal renal tubules of a 7-week-old male ICR [Crlj:CD1(ICR)] mouse. The contents of vacuoles were positively stained with periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and Sudan black, and the membranes were positive on immunohistochemical staining for lysosomal-associated membrane protein-2 (LAMP-2), a ...

Fabry disease in W162C mutation: a case report of two patients and a review of literature
Background Fabry disease is a multisystemic disorder characterized by deposition of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and its deacylated form in multiple organs, sometimes localized in specific systems such as the nervous or cardiovascular system.

Fabry disease (FD) is a progressive, X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of α-galactosidase A activity. Affected individuals accumulate globotriaosylceramide and glycosphingolipids in the lysosomes and cytoplasm of cells throughout

The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina
The lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene, localized in X chromosome. Deficient enzymatic activity of the product of this gene, the lysosomal hydrolase α-galactosidase A, leads to ...

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (SMBCi022-A) from a patient with Fabry disease
Fabry disease (FD) is a systemic disease in which globotriaosylceramide and other naturally occurring glycosphingolipid accumulate in various tissues throughout the body due to mutation of α-galactosidase A (GLA).

Expression of the verotoxin receptor glycolipid, globotriaosylceramide, in ovarian hyperplasias.
The presence of cell surface receptor glycolipid, globotriaosylceramide (Gb3), is essential to confer susceptibility to the E. coli-derived verotoxin (VT). Our earlier studies showed that Gb3 is expressed in ovarian carcinoma cell lines. The Gb3 content of normal ovary, benign and malignant primary ovarian tumors, and their metastases have now been ...
