Lysosomal alkalinization: a convergent mechanism in lysosomal storage disorders and classical neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]

Cell Communication and Signaling
Lysosomes are important cellular organelles involved in the recycling of biomolecules in the cell. The acidic intraluminal pH of the lysosome is necessary for the functioning of various hydrolytic enzymes involved in the recycling of biomolecules ...

Changes in glycosphingolipid levels in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of individuals with Lysosomal Free Sialic Acid Storage Disorder [PDF]

Rare
Lysosomal free sialic acid storage disorder (FSASD) is a rare, multisystem disease caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in SLC17A5, encoding the lysosomal transmembrane sialic acid exporter, sialin.

Reactivation of mTOR signaling slows neurodegeneration in a lysosomal sphingolipid storage disease

Neurobiology of Disease
Sandhoff disease, a lysosomal storage disorder, is caused by pathogenic variants in the HEXB gene, resulting in the loss of β-hexosaminidase activity and accumulation of sphingolipids including GM2 ganglioside.

Lysosomal storage disorders [PDF]

Nature, 2016
Lysosomal storage disorders are characterized by the presence of nondegraded material in endosomal / lysosomal compartments. Any process that interferes with the lysosomal degradation or endosomal / lysosomal transport of molecules can give rise to storage. The cause may be genetic in nature or environmental, as is the case in drug-induced lipidoses or

Impaired autophagy: The collateral damage of lysosomal storage disorders

EBioMedicine, 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.

Lysosomal storage diseases in the era of COVID-19: a report of an Egyptian case of alpha-fucosidosis and a summary of the lysosomal storage diseases-COVID-19 relationship

Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2022
Background We present a case of alpha-fucosidosis, a lysosomal storage disorder, from Egypt. The report also includes a brief review of the COVID-19 and lysosomal storage diseases relationship.

Lysosomal Storage Disorders in the Newborn [PDF]

Pediatrics, 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 ...
