Identification of the iduronate-2-sulfatase proteome in wild-type mouse brain [PDF]
Iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) is a lysosomal enzyme involved in the metabolism of the glycosaminoglycans heparan (HS) and dermatan (DS) sulfate. Mutations on IDS gene produce mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II), characterized by the lysosomal accumulation of

The diagnosis and management of mucopolysaccharidosis type II [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is a rare X-linked recessive inherited lysosomal storage disease. With pathogenic variants of the IDS gene, the activity of iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) is reduced or lost, causing the inability to degrade ...

Rapid genotyping of inversion variants in Mucopolysaccharidosis type II using long-range PCR: A case report [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is a lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency in iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS), leading to the accumulation of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate in lysosomes.

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

Genome Analysis of Planctomycetes Inhabiting Blades of the Red Alga [PDF]
Porphyra is a macrophytic red alga of the Bangiales that is important ecologically and economically. We describe the genomes of three bacteria in the phylum Planctomycetes (designated P1, P2 and P3) that were isolated from blades of Porphyra umbilicalis (

Biodistribution of Idursulfase Formulated for Intrathecal Use (Idursulfase-IT) in Cynomolgus Monkeys after Intrathecal Lumbar Administration. [PDF]
Enzyme replacement therapy with intravenous idursulfase (recombinant iduronate-2-sulfatase) is approved for the treatment of Hunter syndrome. Intravenous administration does not, however, treat the neurological manifestations, due to its low central ...

Pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of a therapeutic enzyme (idursulfase) in cynomolgus monkeys after intrathecal and intravenous administration. [PDF]
Intravenous enzyme replacement therapy with iduronate-2-sulfatase is an approved treatment for Hunter syndrome, however, conventional intravenous delivery cannot treat the neurologic manifestations of the disease due to its limited central nervous system

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type-II with Pathognomonic Skin Appearance: A Case with Pebbling Sign
Mucopolysaccharidosis type-II (MPS-II) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder. Here, we report an 8-year-old boy with pebbling sign in the scapular region, coarse facies, claw hand, diastolic murmur, and hepatomegaly.
