Plasma membrane remodeling in GM2 gangliosidoses drives synaptic dysfunction.
Glycosphingolipids (GSL) are important bioactive membrane components. GSLs containing sialic acids, known as gangliosides, are highly abundant in the brain and diseases of ganglioside metabolism cause severe early-onset neurodegeneration. The ganglioside

Urine oligosaccharide tests for the diagnosis of oligosaccharidoses
This review discusses the development of capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced detection and mass spectrometry techniques for the analysis of urinary oligosaccharides to screen for human oligosaccharidoses and related disorders.

Laboratory Diagnosis of Canine GM2-Gangliosidosis using Blood and Cerebrospinal Fluid
In the present study, laboratory techniques were used to diagnose canine GM2-gangliosidosis using blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that can be collected noninvasively from living individuals.

Tay-Sachs disease: a case report
Tay-Sachs disease (GM2 gangliosidosis I) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal-storage disorder confined to the central nervous system, resulting from deficiency of hexosaminidase A.

Molecular Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Approach of GM2 Gangliosidosis
Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff diseases (GM2 gangliosidoses) are autosomal recessive lysosomal storage diseases caused by gene mutations in HEXA and HEXB, each encoding human lysosomal β-hexosaminidase α-subunits and β-subunits, respectively. In Tay-Sachs disease, excessive accumulation of GM2 ganglioside (GM2), mainly in the central nervous system, is caused ...
