Screening Fabry’s disease in chronic kidney disease patients not on dialysis: a multicenter study
Objectives: Fabry's disease is an X-linked inherited, rare, progressive, lysosomal storage disorder, affecting multiple organs due to the deficient activity of α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) enzyme.

Determination of globotriaosylceramide analogs in the organs of a mouse model of Fabry disease [PDF]
Fabry disease is a heritable lipid disorder caused by the low activity of α-galactosidase A and characterized by the systemic accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3). Recent studies have reported a structural heterogeneity of Gb3 in Fabry disease, including Gb3 isoforms with different fatty acids and Gb3 analogs with modifications on the ...

Fabry disease – a multisystemic disease with gastrointestinal manifestations
Nonspecific gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, such as postprandial cramping pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting are typical symptoms for irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease, but may also be the first symptoms of Fabry disease (FD).

Reduction of globotriaosylceramide in Fabry disease mice by substrate deprivation [PDF]
We used a potent inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase to test whether substrate deprivation could lower globotriaosylceramide levels in alpha-galactosidase A (alpha-gal A) knockout mice, a model of Fabry disease. C57BL/6 mice treated twice daily for 3 days with D-threo-1-ethylendioxyphenyl-2-palmitoylamino-3-pyrrolidi no-propanol (D-t-EtDO-P4) showed

Fabry disease is an X-linked disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene encoding for α-galactosidase A (AGA, EC 3.2.1.22). Measurement of AGA enzyme activity using cell homogenates can easily identify men with Fabry disease, but in women, the degree of

Shiga Toxin—A Model for Glycolipid-Dependent and Lectin-Driven Endocytosis
The cellular entry of the bacterial Shiga toxin and the related verotoxins has been scrutinized in quite some detail. This is due to their importance as a threat to human health.

Globotriaosylceramide Induces Endothelial Dysfunction in Fabry Disease [PDF]
The endothelium critically regulates the contractile status of the vascular smooth muscle cells.1 Dysfunction of endothelial cells (ECs) induces the increased expression of adhesion molecules for inflammatory cells.2 Inflammatory cell migration and vascular inflammation generate an oxidizing environment.

Treatment of Fabry Disease: Established and Emerging Therapies
Fabry disease (FD) is a rare, X-linked inherited disorder of glycosphingolipid metabolism. It leads to the progressive accumulation of globotriaosylceramide within lysosomes due to a deficiency of α-galactosidase A enzyme.

Binding of Pk-Trisaccharide Analogs of Globotriaosylceramide to Shiga Toxin Variants [PDF]
ABSTRACT The two major forms of Shiga toxin, Stx1 and Stx2, use the glycolipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) as their cellular receptor. Stx1 primarily recognizes the Pk-trisaccharide portion and has three Pk binding sites per B monomer. The Stx2a subtype requires glycolipid residues in addition to Pk.
