Cholesterol Ester Storage Disease in Two Field Spaniels With Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine
Cholesterol ester storage disease (CESD) is a rare genetic lysosomal storage disorder resulting from lower lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) activity. LAL is an essential enzyme required in intracellular lipid metabolism, and deficiency results in disability ...

Xenogeneic Mitochondrial Transplantation Improves Selected Age‐Associated Phenotypes in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Yak‐derived xenogeneic mitochondrial transplantation improves selected age‐associated phenotypes in mice, enhances mitochondrial functional readouts, and engages host mitochondrial quality‐control pathways. Broad tissue biodistribution, increased ATP production and mtDNA copy number, reduced ROS levels and dysfunctional mitochondria, improved motility ...

Gene therapy in Anderson-Fabry disease. State of the art and future perspectives

Cardiogenetics, 2020
Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme, agalactosidase A. The inadequate enzymatic activity leads to systemic storage of glycosphingolipids, mostly globotriaosylceramide, in ...

Heat Shock Protein 90: From Molecular Chaperone Function to Therapeutic Targeting in Malignancies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this review, an integrated conceptual framework linking HSP90's molecular chaperone functions to its pathological roles in cancer is proposed. HSP90 serves as a central node that integrates oncogenic signaling, buffers proteotoxic stress, maintains cancer stem cell plasticity, and shapes tumor‐immune interactions, all of which converge to drive ...

Decreased bone formation and increased osteoclastogenesis cause bone loss in mucolipidosis II

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2013
Mucolipidosis type II (MLII) is a severe multi‐systemic genetic disorder caused by missorting of lysosomal proteins and the subsequent lysosomal storage of undegraded macromolecules.

Prenatal-Onset Niemann–Pick Type C Disease with Nonimmune Hydrops Fetalis

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2013
Niemann–Pick type C (NPC; OMIM 257219) disease is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder characterized by accumulation of unesterified cholesterol in the lysosomal/late endosomal system. This autosomal recessive disorder occurs in approximately 1/

A Dual‐Phase Exosomal Nanotherapy Enhances Continual Efferocytosis by Coordinating Checkpoint Inhibition and Metabolic Reprogramming in Atherosclerosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here we developed Am@SExo, a dual‐functional engineered exosome that coordinates CD47–SIRPα checkpoint blockade with Arg1 mRNA–mediated metabolic reprogramming. Surface SIRPα promotes recognition of apoptotic cells and plaque targeting, while Arg1 expression enhances arginine–ornithine metabolism, Rac1 activation, and actin remodeling in macrophages ...

The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina

Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 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 ...

Infantile nephropathic cystinosis with incomplete fanconi syndrome, hypothyroidism, hydro-uretero-nephrosis, and megacystis

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2016
Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of the amino-acid cysteine in various organs and tissues. Infantile nephropathic cystinosis is the most severe form of the disorder.

Engineering monocyte/macrophage−specific glucocerebrosidase expression in human hematopoietic stem cells using genome editing

Nature Communications, 2020
Gaucher disease is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by insufficient glucocerebrosidase expression. Here, the authors describe a CRISPR/Cas9-based gene-editing approach to re-express this enzyme in human blood stem cells and show that they can engraft ...
