Therapeutic Effects of Nizubaglustat in a Mouse Model of GM2 Gangliosidosis. [PDF]

J Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Nizubaglustat is a novel selective inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) and the non‐lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (NLGase, GbA2) with brain penetrant properties. It is currently in clinical development as an oral treatment for rare lysosomal storage diseases with neurological involvement. One such disease group called GM2 gangliosidosis,

A single site in human β-hexosaminidase A binds both 6-sulfate-groups on hexosamines and the sialic acid moiety of GM2 ganglioside [PDF]

, 2003
Human β-hexosaminidase A (Hex A) (αβ) is composed of two subunits whose primary structures are ∼60% identical. Deficiency of either subunit results in severe neurological disease due to the storage of GM2 ganglioside; Tay–Sachs disease, α deficiency, and

Biomarkers for predicting disease course in Sanfilippo syndrome: An urgent unmet need in childhood‐onset dementia

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 166, Issue 3, Page 481-496, August 2023., 2023
Peripherally accessible biomarkers are urgently required to provide a prognosis for children with pre‐symptomatic Sanfilippo syndrome, enabling early trial/treatment access and optimal outcomes. Furthermore, clinical trials require biomarkers to better stratify patients into treatment groups and measure neurocognitive outcomes.

GM1‐gangliosidosis: The caregivers' assessments of symptom impact and most important symptoms to treat

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 2, Page 408-423, February 2023., 2023
Abstract GM1‐gangliosidosis (GM1) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder leading to early mortality and causing progressive decline of physical skills and cerebral functioning. No approved treatment for GM1 exists. In this study—the first to explore priorities of parents of subjects with pediatric onset forms of GM1—we address a crucial gap by ...

Juvenile mucopolysaccharidosis plus disease caused by a missense mutation in VPS33A

Human Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 2265-2278, December 2022., 2022
Abstract A rare and fatal disease resembling mucopolysaccharidosis in infants, is caused by impaired intracellular endocytic trafficking due to deficiency of core components of the intracellular membrane‐tethering protein complexes, HOPS, and CORVET. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel VPS33A mutation in a patient suffering from a variant form of
