Multifaceted enrichment analysis of RNA-RNA crosstalk reveals cooperating micro-societies in human colorectal cancer [PDF]
Alterations in the balance of mRNA and microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles contribute to the onset and development of colorectal cancer. The regulatory functions of individual miRNA-gene pairs are widely acknowledged, but group effects are largely ...

A RARE CASE OF HUNTER SYNDROME – CASE REPORT [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are a group of rare genetic disorders within the larger family of lysosomal diseases. MPSs disorders are caused by a defi ciency in the activity of a specifi c lysosomal enzyme required for the degradation of ...

Therapeutic potential of stem cells in pediatric neurology: Insights from clinical trials
Key characteristics of stem cells. Stem cells are essential in therapy due to their ability to self‐renew, ensuring a continuous supply of cells. They can derive from various sources, primarily embryonic tissue, and adult organs such as bone marrow and adipose tissue.

Challenges in the Management of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II (Hunter’s Syndrome) in a Developing Country: a Case Report [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter's syndrome) is an X-linked chromosomal storage disorder due to deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase with patients rarely living till adulthood. Failure to identify patients early could

Uptake of recombinant iduronate-2-sulfatase into neuronal and glial cells in vitro
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) is a congenital storage disorder resulting from mutations on the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene. The disease shows variable clinical phenotypes from severe to mild with progressive neurological dysfunction.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for the Treatment of Lysosomal Storage Disorders
ABSTRACT Lysosomal disorders (LSDs) are a group of rare metabolic disorders, with an overall incidence of 1:4800 to 1:8000 live births. LSDs are primarily caused by dysfunctional lysosomal enzymes, which typically lead to the progressive accumulation of substrates within cellular lysosomes.

Identification of 17 novel mutations in 40 Argentinean unrelated families with mucopolysaccharidosis type II (Hunter syndrome) [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPSII) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS). The human IDS gene is located in chromosome Xq28.

Identification of an Alternative Transcript from the Human Iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) Gene
Iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) is involved in the degradation of heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate in the lysosomes, and a deficiency in this enzyme results in Hunter syndrome. A 2.3-kb cDNA clone that contains the entire coding sequence of IDS has previously been reported.
