Assessment and impact of dose escalation on anti-drug antibodies in Fabry disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant α-galactosidase A (AGAL) can lead to the formation of neutralizing anti-drug antibodies (ADA), which significantly limit treatment efficacy in patients with Fabry disease (FD).

Female Fabry disease patients and X-chromosome inactivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Fabry disease is an X-linked inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding α- galactosidase A (GLA). Once it was thought to affect only hemizygous males.

Role of Biomarkers in Diagnosing Disease, Assessing the Severity and Progression of Disease, and Evaluating the Efficacy of Therapies. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT This paper reviews biomarkers in lysosomal disease according to their categories and definitions. There are numerous biomarkers in lysosomal diseases. Some are disease or organ‐specific, but most are not. Organ‐specific biomarkers are especially useful, but most biomarkers help with diagnosis, assessing disease severity, prognosis, and ...

The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina : Genotype, Experiences, Anecdotes, and New Learnings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene, localized in X chromosome. Deficient enzymatic activity of the product of this gene, the lysosomal hydrolase α-galactosidase A, leads to ...

A novel, highly sensitive and specific biomarker for Niemann-Pick type C1 disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), are a heterogeneous group of rare disorders caused by defects in genes encoding for proteins involved in the lysosomal degradation of macromolecules. They occur at a frequency of about 1 in 5,000 live births,

Plasma mutant α-galactosidase A protein and globotriaosylsphingosine level in Fabry disease

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2014
Fabry disease is an X-linked genetic disorder characterized by deficient activity of α-galactosidase A (GLA) and accumulation of glycolipids, and various GLA gene mutations lead to a wide range of clinical phenotypes from the classic form to the later ...

Expression of the disease on female carriers of X-linked lysosomal disorders: a brief review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Most lysosomal diseases (LD) are inherited as autosomal recessive traits, but two important conditions have X-linked inheritance: Fabry disease and Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II).
