Lysosomes, Lysosomal Storage Diseases, and Inflammation [PDF]
Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2016 Lysosomes were originally described in the early 1950s by de Duve who was also the first to recognize the importance of these organelles in human disease.

Perinatal Gene Transfer to the Liver [PDF]
, 2011 The liver acts as a host to many functions hence raising the possibility that any one may be compromised by a single gene defect. Inherited or de novo mutations in these genes may result in relatively mild diseases or be so devastating that death within

Neuroinflammatory paradigms in lysosomal storage diseases
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) include approximately 70 distinct disorders that collectively account for 14% of all inherited metabolic diseases. LSDs are caused by mutations in various enzymes/proteins that disrupt lysosomal function, which impairs ...

Modeling Lysosomal Storage Diseases in the Zebrafish
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020 Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a family of 70 metabolic disorders characterized by mutations in lysosomal proteins that lead to storage material accumulation, multiple-organ pathologies that often involve neurodegeneration, and early mortality in ...

Synaptic Function and Dysfunction in Lysosomal Storage Diseases
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021 Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) with neurological involvement are inherited genetic diseases of the metabolism characterized by lysosomal dysfunction and the accumulation of undegraded substrates altering glial and neuronal function.

Primary fibroblasts from CSPα mutation carriers recapitulate hallmarks of the adult onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]
, 2017 Mutations in the co- chaperone protein, CSPα, cause an autosomal dominant, adult-neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (AD-ANCL). The current understanding of CSPα function exclusively at the synapse fails to explain the autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP ...

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

The Chihuahua dog: A new animal model for neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis CLN7 disease? [PDF]
, 2016 Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are a group of incurable lysosomal storage disorders characterized by neurodegeneration and accumulation of lipopigments mainly within the neurons. We studied two littermate Chihuahua dogs presenting with progressive

Relationship of Lysosomal Storage Diseases (LSD) with Autophagy
Van Tıp Dergisi, 2022 Lysosomes are organelles that degrade damaged components or structures that have completed their functions and have roles in the last step of the autophagy pathway. Damage of the autophagy-lysosome pathway can cause vital problems for the cell. Lysosomal

Clinical outcome of a patient with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency and first results after initiation of treatment with Sebelipase alfa: A case report [PDF]
, 2019 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
