Advances in therapies for neurological lysosomal storage disorders
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.

Characterization of orthopedic manifestations in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis II using data from 15 years of the Hunter Outcome Survey. [PDF]
Abstract Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is a rare, life‐limiting lysosomal storage disease caused by reduced iduronate‐2‐sulfatase activity. Patients experience broad ranging signs and symptoms, including bone and joint manifestations. This study reported on orthopedic involvement and management in patients with MPS II using 15 years of data from ...
