Lysosomal Storage Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2009
We report a case of lysosomal storage disease diagnosed by lysosomal enzyme assay in a two year oldboy with a history of gradual onset of weakness of body, poor vision, fl accid neck and spasticity in allfour limbs with hyper-refl exia. On fundus examination cherry red spots were noted at macula.

Rag GTPases are cardioprotective by regulating lysosomal function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Rag family proteins are Ras-like small GTPases that have a critical role in amino-acid-stimulated mTORC1 activation by recruiting mTORC1 to lysosome.

New paradigms for the treatment of lysosomal storage diseases: targeting the endocannabinoid system as a therapeutic strategy

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Over the past three decades the lysosomal storage diseases have served as model for rare disease treatment development. While these efforts have led to considerable success, important challenges remain.

Lysosomal Lipid Storage Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2011
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.

Diagnostic journey and impact of enzyme replacement therapy for mucopolysaccharidosis IVA: a sibling control study

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2020
Background Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA, also known as Morquio A syndrome, is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in the enzyme N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase.

Clarifying lysosomal storage diseases [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Neurosciences, 2011
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.

Lysosomal Storage Diseases: Heterogeneous Group of Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesBioImpacts, 2013
The name of lysosomal storage diseases stems from the fact that in this category of disorders specific undegraded materials are stored in the lysosomes.

Protein Aggregation and Dysfunction of Autophagy-Lysosomal Pathway: A Vicious Cycle in Lysosomal Storage Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
Many neurodegenerative conditions are characterized by the deposition of protein aggregates (mainly amyloid-like) in the central nervous system (CNS). In post-mitotic CNS cells protein aggregation causes cytotoxicity by interfering with various cellular ...

Engineering of GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase for production of highly phosphorylated lysosomal enzymes for enzyme replacement therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Several lysosomal enzymes currently used for enzyme replacement therapy in patients with lysosomal storage diseases contain very low levels of mannose 6-phosphate, limiting their uptake via mannose 6-phosphate receptors on the surface of the deficient ...
