Natural History of Infantile GM2 Gangliosidosis
OBJECTIVE: GM2 gangliosidoses are caused by an inherited deficiency of lysosomal β-hexosaminidase and result in ganglioside accumulation in the brain.

Genetics of Juvenile Spinal Muscular Atrophy
A 20-year-old female with difficulties in running and climbing stairs since age 10 and suspected of having spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type III (Kugelberg-Welander disease) was diagnosed with GM2 gangliosidosis at the Department of Human Genetics ...

ABSTRACT Background In Japan, the number of children with medical complexity (CMC) is increasing. In response, the Act on Support for Children Requiring Constant Medical Care and Their Families mandated prefectural support centre establishment and promoted coordination across health, welfare and education sectors.

Remote Monitoring in Myasthenia Gravis: Exploring Symptom Variability
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, autoimmune disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness and potential life‐threatening crises. While continuous specialized care is essential, access barriers often delay timely interventions. To address this, we developed MyaLink, a telemedical platform for MG patients.

Neuromuscular synaptic transmission in aged ganglioside-deficient mice [PDF]
Gangliosides are sialylated glycosphingolipids that are present in high density on neuronal membranes, especially at synapses, where they are assumed to play functional or modulating roles.

THE LYSOSOMAL STORAGE DISEASE GM2 GANGLIOSIDOSIS IN CAPTIVE BANDED MONGOOSE SIBLINGS (MUNGOS MUNGO).
This study reports the occurrence of the lysosomal storage disease GM2 gangliosidosis (Sandhoff disease) in two 11-mo-old captive-bred, male and female mongoose siblings ( Mungos mungo). The clinical signs and the pathological findings reported here were

ABSTRACT The importance of early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is well known, as it allows early intervention to prevent or reduce complications and improve prognosis, since many of these disorders are treatable. However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal

White Matter Pathology as a Barrier to Gangliosidosis Gene Therapy
The gangliosidoses are a family of neurodegenerative lysosomal storage diseases that have recently seen promising advances in gene therapy. White matter deficits are well established components of gangliosidosis pathology that are now receiving more ...

Hexa-associated GM2 gangliosidosis in a family of wild boars [PDF]
Gangliosidosis are inherited lysosomal storage disorders caused by defective activity of a lysosomal hydrolase required for ganglioside catabolism, resulting in the intra-lysosomal accumulation of undegraded metabolites.
