Glycosphingolipid Storage in Fabry Mice Extends Beyond Globotriaosylceramide and is Affected by ABCB1 Depletion [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Science OA, 2016
Fabry disease is caused by α-galactosidase A deficiency leading to accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) in tissues. Clinical manifestations do not appear to correlate with total Gb3 levels. Studies examining tissue distribution of specific acyl chain species of Gb3 and upstream glycosphingolipids are lacking.Thorough characterization of the ...

Current Topics of Progressive Cardiac Conduction Disease

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 3, June 2026.
Many genes and the protein cause PCCD. Mutation of NaV1.5 or CX40 cause isolated PCCD, but mutation of lamin A/C, emerin, or desmin lead to cardiomyopathy, and PCCD. Mutation of transcription factor NCX2‐5, and Tbx5 associated with atrial septal defect and abnormal development of conduction system.

Globotriaosylceramide Gb3 Influences Wound Healing and Scar Formation by Orchestrating Fibroblast Heterogeneity

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Cutaneous fibroblast heterogeneity is mechanistically linked to wound repair outcomes and fibrotic progression, with glycosphingolipid metabolism emerging as a critical determinant of physiological fibroblast diversity.

Septins in the Middle—Makers and Breakers of Membrane Contact Sites

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 6, June 2026.
Septins are a family of GTP‐binding proteins that assemble into heteromeric oligomers and polymers, associating with specific membrane domains and organelles according to their subunit composition. Growing evidence places septins at membrane contact sites (MCS) — key hubs for intracellular communication that mediate exchange of ions, lipids, and ...

Globotriaosylceramide, Gb3, is an alternative functional receptor for Shiga-like toxin 2e [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1995
We reexamined the binding specificity of the Shiga-like toxin variant associated with porcine edema disease, SLT2e, which is reported to be more cytotoxic for Vero cells than for HeLa cells, by using receptor-deficient cells and a liposomal insertion system for purified glycolipids.

Liver Gene Therapy in Fabry Disease Mice With Low Doses of rAAV2/8 Expressing a Codon‐Optimized hGLA cDNA Results in Long‐Term Disease Correction

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
AAV‐mediated gene therapy targets the liver to produce and secrete into circulation functional α‐Gal A, which is taken up by tissues to reduce glycosphingolipid accumulation and prevent disease progression in juvenile Fabry mice, even at low AAV doses. ABSTRACT Fabry disease (FD) is an X‐linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GLA ...

Enhanced thrombospondin-1 causes dysfunction of vascular endothelial cells derived from Fabry disease-induced pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2020
Background: Fabry disease (FD) is a recessive X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by α-galactosidase A (GLA) deficiency. Although the mechanism is unclear, GLA deficiency causes an accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3), leading to ...

Development of CAR NK Cell Lines Selectively Targeting Cancer Cells Expressing Membrane Hsp70

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
This work presents a novel CAR NK cell platform targeting membrane‐bound Hsp70, a tumor‐specific antigen broadly expressed on solid tumors but not on normal cells. Computational modeling confirmed strong binding between the CAR construct and the Hsp70‐derived TKD peptide.

Supply and Demand in the Mathematics of Rare Disease Drug Development: Why Choosing the Right Model Is Crucial

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Clinical trials for rare diseases face a fundamental mathematical challenge that conventional randomized controlled trial (RCT) designs cannot overcome. With approximately 95% of the estimated 10,000–16,000 rare diseases lacking approved therapies, and drug development programs failing at rates exceeding 75% in non‐oncology indications, the ...
