Female Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II): Insights From the Hunter Outcome Survey. [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Rep
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis II is a rare, X‐linked disease, with very few reports of affected female patients. Natural history data describe a predominantly male population, and appropriate disease characterization in female patients is lacking. This analysis explores the somatic disease burden and clinical progression of female patients with MPS II

Ex Vivo Gene Therapy Treats Bone Complications of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II Mouse Models through Bone Remodeling Reactivation

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2020
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II is a disease caused by organ accumulation of glycosaminoglycans due to iduronate 2-sulfatase deficiency. This study investigated the pathophysiology of the bone complications associated with mucopolysaccharidosis II and the ...

Intrathecal idursulfase-IT in children younger than 3 years with neuronopathic mucopolysaccharidosis II in a single-arm, open-label, phase 2/3 substudy and extension. [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Rep
Abstract Data from a phase 2/3, randomized, controlled, open‐label, multicenter trial in children with neuronopathic mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) older than 3 years suggested a benefit of intrathecal idursulfase‐IT on cognitive functioning in some patients. We describe a separate, parallel, open‐label, single‐arm, 52‐week substudy

Hurler Syndrome Glycosaminoglycans Decrease in Cerebrospinal Fluid without Brain‐Targeted Therapy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 1182-1186, December 2023., 2023
Novel therapies for Hurler syndrome aim to cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB) to target neurodegeneration by degrading glycosaminoglycans (GAG). BBB penetration has been assumed with decreased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) GAG, yet little is known about CSF GAG without brain‐targeting therapies.

Dose selection for biological enzyme replacement therapy indicated for inborn errors of metabolism

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2438-2457, December 2023., 2023
Abstract This paper summarizes key features of the dose‐finding strategies used in the development of 11 approved new molecular entities that are first‐in‐class enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), with a goal to gain insight into the dose exploration approaches to inform efficient dose‐finding in future development of biological products for Inborn ...

Sequence of the Human Iduronate 2-Sulfatase (IDS) Gene

open access: yesGenomics, 1993
Deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS; EC 3.1.6.13) results in the storage of the glycosaminoglycans heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate, which leads to the lysosomal storage disorder mucopolysaccharidosis type II. Three overlapping genomic clones derived from an X-chromosome-specific library containing the entire IDS gene were

Advances in therapies for neurological lysosomal storage disorders

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 874-905, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Lysosomal Storage Disorders (LSDs) are a diverse group of inherited, monogenic diseases caused by functional defects in specific lysosomal proteins. The lysosome is a cellular organelle that plays a critical role in catabolism of waste products and recycling of macromolecules in the body.

Allergic Reactions at Enzyme Replacement Therapy in Children with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2021
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is rare hereditary disease caused by changes in the IDS gene and associated deficiency of lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S).

Drug delivery in overcoming the blood-brain barrier: role of nasal mucosal grafting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a fundamental role in protecting and maintaining the homeostasis of the brain. For this reason, drug delivery to the brain is much more difficult than that to other compartments of the body. In order to bypass or cross
