Prevalence of Lysosomal Storage Disorders [PDF]

JAMA, 1999
Lysosomal storage disorders represent a group of at least 41 genetically distinct, biochemically related, inherited diseases. Individually, these disorders are considered rare, although high prevalence values have been reported in some populations. These disorders are devastating for individuals and their families and result in considerable use of ...

A block of autophagy in lysosomal storage disorders [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2007
Most lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are caused by deficiencies of lysosomal hydrolases. While LSDs were among the first inherited diseases for which the underlying biochemical defects were identified, the mechanisms from enzyme deficiency to cell death are poorly understood.

Risks of long-term port use in enzyme replacement therapy for lysosomal storage disorders

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2018
Totally implantable vascular access devices (TIVADs) are commonly used in conjunction with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs).

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Lysosomal Storage Disorders [PDF]

Diseases, 2016
Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) describe a heterogeneous group of rare inherited metabolic disorders that result from the absence or loss of function of lysosomal hydrolases or transporters, resulting in the progressive accumulation of undigested material in lysosomes.

Redefining GBA gene structure unveils the ability of Cap-independent, IRES-dependent gene regulation

Communications Biology, 2022
The cell type-specific expression of the glucocerebrosidase gene, associated with the lysosomal storage disorder called Gaucher disease, is linked to cis- and trans-regulatory transcriptional and translational mechanisms.

A mouse model for fucosidosis recapitulates storage pathology and neurological features of the milder form of the human disease

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Fucosidosis is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by the inherited deficiency of the lysosomal hydrolase α-L-fucosidase, which leads to an impaired degradation of fucosylated glycoconjugates.

Enzyme replacement therapy in type 1 Gaucher disease and a review of the literature

Turkish Journal of Hematology, 2010
Gaucher disease (GD) is the most common lysosomal storage disorder. Deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase results in the intracellular accumulation of undegraded substrates in the spleen, liver and bone marrow. Enzyme replacement therapy (

Homozygous TBC1 domain-containing kinase (TBCK) mutation causes a novel lysosomal storage disease – a new type of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (CLN15)?

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2018
Homozygous mutation of TBC1 domain-containing kinase (TBCK) is the cause of a very recently defined severe childhood disorder, which is characterized by severe hypotonia, global developmental delay, intellectual disability, epilepsy, characteristic ...
