Genetic Variation of Lysosomal Acid Lipase [PDF]
Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) activity was measured using a new fluorometric assay in cultured skin fibroblasts from eight control subjects, two obligate heterozygotes for Wolman's disease (WD), one patient with WD, and one patient with cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD).

A Phase 3 Trial of Sebelipase Alfa in Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency [PDF]
Lysosomal acid lipase is an essential lipid-metabolizing enzyme that breaks down endocytosed lipid particles and regulates lipid metabolism. We conducted a phase 3 trial of enzyme-replacement therapy in children and adults with lysosomal acid lipase ...

Lysosomal Acid Lipase in Lipid Metabolism and Beyond [PDF]
Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL), encoded by the lipase A ( LIPA ) gene, hydrolyzes cholesteryl esters and triglycerides to generate free fatty acids and cholesterol in the cell. The essential role of LAL in lipid metabolism has been confirmed in mice and human with LAL deficiency.

We report on a case of very rare autosomal recessive cholesteryl ester storage disease due to lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LALD). LALD is caused by mutations in the lysosomal acid lipase A (LIPA) gene resulting in cholesteryl ester accumulation in ...

Clinical Features of Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency [PDF]
AbstractObjective:The aim of this study was to characterize key clinical manifestations of lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL D) in children and adults.Methods:Investigators reviewed medical records of LAL D patients ages ≥5 years, extracted historical data, and obtained prospective laboratory and imaging data on living patients to develop a ...

Specific Substrate for the Assay of Lysosomal Acid Lipase [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND Deficiency of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) causes Wolman disease and cholesterol ester storage disease. With the recent introduction of enzyme replacement therapy to manage LAL deficiency comes the need for a reliable assay of LAL enzymatic activity that can be applied to dried ...
