Ten-year-long enzyme replacement therapy shows a poor effect in alleviating giant leg ulcers in a male with Fabry disease

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2018
Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of α-galactosidase A (α-gal A), leading to the progressive accumulation of glycosphingolipids.

Case Report: Diagnostic challenges in Fabry disease: misinterpreted obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and the role of enzyme replacement therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Fabry disease (FD) is a rare X-linked inherited lysosomal storage disorder. The abnormal accumulation of metabolic substrates induces inflammation and fibrosis in cells, resulting in organ dysfunction.

Cell Transplantation Combined with Recombinant Collagen Peptides for the Treatment of Fabry Disease

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2020
Fabry disease is caused by a decrease in or loss of the activity of alpha-galactosidase, which causes its substrates globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) to accumulate in cells throughout the body. This accumulation results

Globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) and analogues in plasma and urine of patients with Fabry disease and correlations with long-term treatment and genotypes in a nationwide female Danish cohort

open access: yes, 2021
Introduction: Recent studies showed the usefulness of globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) and related analogues, deacylated forms of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3), for high-risk screening, treatment monitoring and follow-up for patients with Fabry disease.

Late-onset renal variant Fabry disease with R112H mutation and mild increase in plasma globotriaosylsphingosine: a case report

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked disorder resulting in a deficiency of α-galactosidase A (GLA) activity. The R112H mutation of GLA is relatively common in Japanese FD patients, characterized by a late-onset phenotype, almost normal to mild lyso-Gb3 ...

Analysis of Lyso-Globotriaosylsphingosine in Dried Blood Spots

open access: yes, 2014
Recently, lyso-globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) was found to be elevated in plasma of treatment naive male patients and some female patients with Fabry Disease (FD).

Preclinical efficacy and safety of adeno-associated virus 5 alpha-galactosidase: A gene therapy for Fabry disease

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
We developed a novel adeno-associated virus 5 gene therapy (AAV5-GLA) expressing human alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) under the control of a novel, small and strong, liver-restricted promoter.
