Impaired autophagy: The collateral damage of lysosomal storage disorders

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2021
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), which number over fifty, are monogenically inherited and caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins that are involved in lysosomal function.

Autophagy in lysosomal storage disorders [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2012
Lysosomes are ubiquitous intracellular organelles that have an acidic internal pH, and play crucial roles in cellular clearance. Numerous functions depend on normal lysosomes, including the turnover of cellular constituents, cholesterol homeostasis, downregulation of surface receptors, inactivation of pathogenic organisms, repair of the plasma membrane

Lysosomal Storage Disorders in the Newborn [PDF]

open access: yesPediatrics, 2009
Lysosomal storage disorders are rare inborn errors of metabolism, with a combined incidence of 1 in 1500 to 7000 live births. These relatively rare disorders are seldom considered when evaluating a sick newborn. A significant number of the >50 different lysosomal storage disorders, however, do manifest in the neonatal period and should be part ...

Immunochemistry of Lysosomal Storage Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2006
Abstract Background: Lysosomal storage disorders are a group of genetic diseases, each with a broad spectrum of clinical presentation that ranges from attenuated to severe. The immunochemical analysis of patient samples is aimed at several key aspects of patient management, including early detection of the disorder, prediction of ...

Lysosomal membrane integrity in fibroblasts derived from patients with Gaucher disease

open access: yesCell Structure and Function, 2023
Gaucher disease (GD) is a recessively inherited lysosomal storage disorder characterized by a deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GBA1). This deficiency results in the accumulation of its substrate, glucosylceramide (GlcCer), within lysosomes ...
