Niemann Pick disease: a rare lysosomal storage disease
Niemann Pick Disease (NPD) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease characterized by lysosomal lipid storage. The disease is caused by deficiency of enzyme, acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) which leads to accumulation of sphingomyelin & other ...

Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a group of over 70 diseases that are characterized by lysosomal dysfunction, most of which are inherited as autosomal recessive traits. These disorders are individually rare but collectively affect 1 in 5,000 live births. LSDs typically present in infancy and childhood, although adult-onset forms also occur.

Loss of function progranulin (GRN) mutations are a major autosomal dominant cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Patients with FTD due to GRN mutations (FTD-GRN) develop frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 pathology type A (FTLD-TDP type A ...

Lysosomal Lipid Storage Diseases [PDF]
Lysosomal lipid storage diseases, or lipidoses, are inherited metabolic disorders in which typically lipids accumulate in cells and tissues. Complex lipids, such as glycosphingolipids, are constitutively degraded within the endolysosomal system by soluble hydrolytic enzymes with the help of lipid binding proteins in a sequential manner.

Overview of Lysosomal Storage Diseases in Kurdistan Region/ Iraq
Background and objectives:The lysosomal lipid storage diseases are diverse disorders each due to an inherited deficiency of a lysosomal hydrolase enzyme leading to the intralysosomal accumulation of the enzyme’s particular substrate; each catabolic step,

Lysosomes are cytoplasmic organelles that contain a variety of different hydrolases. A genetic deficiency in the enzymatic activity of one of these hydrolases will lead to the accumulation of the material meant for lysosomal degradation. Examples include glycogen in the case of Pompe disease, glycosaminoglycans in the case of the mucopolysaccharidoses,

Clarifying lysosomal storage diseases [PDF]
Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a class of metabolic disorders caused by mutations in proteins critical for lysosomal function. Such proteins include lysosomal enzymes, lysosomal integral membrane proteins, and proteins involved in the post-translational modification and trafficking of lysosomal proteins.
