Clinical and diagnostic aspects of Fabry disease management: a narrative review with a particular focus on Brazilian experts’ perspectives

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2022
Research on the genetics, epidemiology, and clinical manifestations of Fabry disease (FD) has increased significantly in recent years. However, some relevant clinical questions still need to be answered to develop better approaches to patient management.

Progress in Diagnosis and Treatment of Children having Fabry Disease

open access: yes罕见病研究, 2022
Fabry disease (FD) is a rare progressive X-linked genetic lysosomal storage disorder. Mutations of the GLA gene result in deficiency of α-galactosidase (α-Gal A), and the accumulation of glycosphingolipids, particularly globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) and ...

Clinical significance of plasma globotriaosylsphingosine levels in Chinese patients with Fabry disease

open access: diamondExperimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2018
Although plasma globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) is a promising biomarker of Fabry disease (FD), few studies have assessed the impact of lyso-Gb3 in patients with FD. A total of 38 patients diagnosed with FD at Ruijin Hospital between January 2012 and December 2014 were recruited in the current study.

Fabry Disease: Molecular Basis, Pathophysiology, Diagnostics and Potential Therapeutic Directions

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Fabry disease (FD) is a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) characterized by the deficiency of α-galactosidase A (α-GalA) and the consequent accumulation of toxic metabolites such as globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and globotriaosylsphingosine (lysoGb3).

Elevated Inflammatory Plasma Biomarkers in Patients With Fabry Disease: A Critical Link to Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Because systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction lead to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, we characterized plasma levels of inflammatory and cardiac remodeling biomarkers in patients with Fabry disease (FD). Methods and

A questionnaire survey on the diagnosis and treatment of Fabry nephropathy in clinical practice [PDF]

open access: yesKidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2023
Background Fabry nephropathy is characterized by a deficiency of lysosomal alpha-galactosidase A, which results in proteinuria and kidney disease. The ineffectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for severe kidney failure highlights the need for ...

Plasma globotriaosylsphingosine in relation to phenotypes of Fabry disease

open access: yesJournal of Medical Genetics, 2015
Background Fabry disease (FD), a lysosomal storage disorder caused by α-galactosidase A (GLA) gene variants, has a heterogeneous phenotype. GLA variants can lead to classical FD, an attenuated non-classical phenotype, or no disease at all. This study investigates the value of plasma globotriaosylsphingosine (lysoGb3)

Case Report: First Two Identified Cases of Fabry Disease in Central Asia

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Background: Fabry disease (FD, OMIM #301500) is a rare, progressive, X-linked inherited, genetic disease due to the functional deficiency of lysosomal α-galactosidase (α-GAL) that leads to the accumulation of glycosphingolipids (mainly ...

Endothelial Dysfunction in Fabry Disease Is Related to Glycocalyx Degradation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked multisystemic lysosomal storage disease due to a deficiency of α-galactosidase A (GLA/AGAL). Progressive cellular accumulation of the AGAL substrate globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) leads to endothelial dysfunction.

Fabry disease in a Japanese population-molecular and biochemical characteristics

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2018
We had experienced 117 Japanese Fabry patients (72 males and 45 females) from 1977 to 2006, and then we generated an improved Fabry analysis system in 2007 and have found 196 ones (95 males and 101 females) since then.
