Five years of newborn screening for Pompe, Mucopolysaccharidosis type I, Gaucher, and Fabry diseases in Oregon

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports
In October 2018, the Oregon newborn screening program began screening for four lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) Pompe, Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I (MPSI), Gaucher, and Fabry.

Profiling Co‐Occurrent Morphological Phenotypes and Their Degree of Expression Severity in Vacuolated Cells by Holo‐Tomographic Flow Cytometry and Fractal Analysis

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
HTFC gets 3D refractive index tomograms of flowing cells. Label‐free monocytes are engineered to express patterns of cytoplasmic vacuoles. From the tomogram, an efficient dimensionality reduction is operated. Interpretable features are extracted to classify the expression severity of phenotypes coexisting in each cell, visually represented by a seven ...

Epigenetic Mechanisms in Fabry Disease: A Thematic Analysis Linking Differential Methylation Profiles and Genetic Modifiers to Disease Phenotype

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Background/Objectives: Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder. It is characterised by impaired metabolism of glycosphingolipids whose accumulation causes irreversible organ damage and life-threatening complications.

Immune system irregularities in lysosomal storage disorders

, 2008
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are genetically inherited diseases characterized by the accumulation of disease-specific biological materials such as proteolipids or metabolic intermediates within the lysosome.

Cumulative Antigen Suppression Reduces Clonal Plasma Cell Evolution in Gaucher Disease

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic antigenic stimulation is implicated in the pathogenesis of monoclonal gammopathy and multiple myeloma, yet longitudinal human evidence linking sustained antigen exposure to modifiable clonal plasma cell evolution remains limited. Gaucher disease (GD), caused by biallelic GBA1 pathogenic variants, is characterized by accumulation of ...

Misrouting of v-ATPase subunit V0a1 dysregulates lysosomal acidification in a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disease model

Nature Communications, 2017
Lysosomal acidification defects have been implicated in various neurodegenerative disorders. Baghet al. show that the V0a1 subunit of v-ATPase requires palmitoylation for correct sorting and trafficking to the lysosome membrane, and that such a process ...

The Critical Role of Fractionated Urine Glycosaminoglycans in the Evaluation of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II in Four Unrelated Families

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2015, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital has performed diagnostic testing for infants who screen positive for mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) on the Illinois newborn screen. Preliminary diagnostic testing includes measurement of plasma iduronate‐2‐sulfatase enzyme activity and urinary glycosaminoglycan analysis, followed ...

MAN2B1 in immune system-related diseases, neurodegenerative disorders and cancers: functions beyond α-mannosidosis

Expert Reviews in Molecular Medicine
Glycosylation modifications of proteins and glycan hydrolysis are critical for protein function in biological processes. Aberrations in glycosylation enzymes are linked to lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), immune interactions, congenital disorders and ...

Splicing therapeutics for patients affected by lysosomal storage disorders [PDF]

, 2017
In this study, we have used a modified U1 snRNA that completely matches the splice donor site of HGSNAT gene exon 2, which corrected the effect of the common 5’ splice site mutation c.234+1G>A in Mucopolysaccharidosis IIIC.

Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are
