Acetyl-leucine slows disease progression in lysosomal storage disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Acetyl-DL-leucine is a derivative of the branched chain amino acid leucine. In observational clinical studies acetyl-DL-leucine improved symptoms of ataxia, in particular in patients with the lysosomal storage disorder, Niemann-Pick disease type C1. Here,

SnapShot: Lysosomal Storage Diseases

open access: yesCell, 2020
Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) represent a group of monogenic inherited metabolic disorders characterized by the progressive accumulation of undegraded substrates inside lysosomes, resulting in aberrant lysosomal activity and homeostasis. This SnapShot summarizes the intracellular localization and function of proteins implicated in LSDs.

Long term substrate reduction therapy with ezetimibe alone or associated with statins in three adult patients with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Background Lysosomal acid lipase deficiency is an autosomal recessive metabolic disease with a wide range of severity from Wolman Disease to Cholesterol Ester Storage Disease. Recently enzyme replacement therapy with sebelipase alpha has been approved by

Haematopoietic development and immunological function in the absence of cathepsin D [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Cathepsin D is a well-characterized aspartic protease expressed ubiquitously in lysosomes. Cathepsin D deficiency is associated with a spectrum of pathologies leading ultimately to death.

Loss of the batten disease protein CLN3 leads to mis-trafficking of M6PR and defective autophagic-lysosomal reformation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Batten disease, one of the most devastating types of neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorders, is caused by mutations in CLN3. Here, we show that CLN3 is a vesicular trafficking hub connecting the Golgi and lysosome compartments.

The Role of Exosomes in Lysosomal Storage Disorders

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Exosomes, small membrane-bound organelles formed from endosomal membranes, represent a heterogenous source of biological and pathological biomarkers capturing the metabolic status of a cell.

Lysosomal storage disease overview [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2018
The lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a group of inherited metabolic disorders that are caused for the most part by enzyme deficiencies within the lysosome resulting in accumulation of undegraded substrate. This storage process leads to a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations depending on the specific substrate and site of accumulation ...

Nanoreporter Identifies Lysosomal Storage Disease Lipid Accumulation Intracranially

open access: yes, 2023
Dysregulated lipid metabolism contributes to neurodegenerative pathologies and neurological decline in lysosomal storage disorders as well as more common neurodegenerative diseases. Niemann–Pick type A (NPA) is a fatal neurodegenerative lysosomal storage

Alleviation of a polyglucosan storage disorder by enhancement of autophagic glycogen catabolism

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2021
This work employs adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) models to explore the efficacy and mechanism of action of the polyglucosan‐reducing compound 144DG11.

Types and Genetic Evaluation of Lysosomal Storage Diseases in Kurdistan Region

open access: yesمجلة الكوفة الطبية
Background and objectives: Lysosomal storage diseases are a set of single-gene disorders that is attributed to insufficient certain lysosomal hydrolase activity or non-enzymatic proteins vital for typical lysosomal functions.
