Altered GM1 catabolism affects NMDAR-mediated Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling at ER-PM junctions and increases synaptic spine formation in a GM1-gangliosidosis model. [PDF]
Summary: Endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane (ER-PM) junctions mediate Ca2+ flux across neuronal membranes. The properties of these membrane contact sites are defined by their lipid content, but little attention has been given to glycosphingolipids ...

GM1 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of β-galactosidase (βgal) and subsequent accumulation of GM1 ganglioside in lysosomes. One of the pathological aspects of GM1 gangliosidosis, and other storage disorders, is impaired

AAVrh10 vector corrects pathology in animal models of GM1 gangliosidosis and achieves widespread distribution in the CNS of nonhuman primates. [PDF]
GM1 gangliosidosis is a rare, inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the GLB1 gene, which encodes the lysosomal hydrolase acid β-galactosidase (β-gal). β-gal deficiency leads to toxic accumulation of GM1 ganglioside, predominantly in

A Case for Automated Segmentation of MRI Data in Neurodegenerative Diseases: Type II GM1 Gangliosidosis. [PDF]
Background: Volumetric analysis and segmentation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data is an important tool for evaluating neurological disease progression and neurodevelopment. Fully automated segmentation pipelines offer faster and more reproducible

Synthesis of a New β-Galactosidase Inhibitor Displaying Pharmacological Chaperone Properties for GM1 Gangliosidosis. [PDF]
GM1 gangliosidosis is a rare lysosomal disease caused by the deficiency of the enzyme β-galactosidase (β-Gal; GLB1; E.C. 3.2.1.23), responsible for the hydrolysis of terminal β-galactosyl residues from GM1 ganglioside, glycoproteins, and ...

Adeno-associated virus expressing a blood-brain barrier-penetrating enzyme improves GM1 gangliosidosis in a preclinical model. [PDF]
GM1 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by genetic defects in lysosomal β-galactosidase (β-gal). The primary substrate of β-gal is GM1 ganglioside (GM1), a sialylated glycosphingolipid abundant in the central nervous system (CNS).

Clinical findings in Brazilian patients with adult GM1 gangliosidosis. [PDF]
GM1 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by β‐galactosidase deficiency. To date, prospective studies for GM1 gangliosidosis are not available, and only a few have focused on the adult form.

Gangliosidosis gml juvenil como causa de regresión en el neurodesarrollo: reporte de caso
La gangliosidosis GM1 es ocasionada por deficiencia en la actividad catalítica de la enzima lisosomal beta-galacto-sidasa, dando origen a la acumulación del esfingolípido conocido como gangliósido GM1.

Characterization of glycan substrates accumulating in GM1 Gangliosidosis. [PDF]
Introduction: GM1 gangliosidosis is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by the disruption of the GLB1 gene that encodes β-galactosidase, a lysosomal hydrolase that removes β-linked galactose from the non-reducing end of glycans. Deficiency

Fluorescent In Situ Staining and Flow Cytometric Procedures as New Pre-Diagnostic Tests for Sialidosis, GM1 Gangliosidosis and Niemann-Pick Type C. [PDF]
Background: Early diagnosis is essential in the field of lysosomal storage disorders for the proper management of patients and for starting therapies before irreversible damage occurs, particularly in neurodegenerative conditions.
