Accumulation of lysosulfatide in the brain of arylsulfatase A-deficient mice [PDF]
Lysosomal storage diseases are a group of disorders where accumulation of catabolites is manifested in the lysosomes of different cell types. In metachromatic leukodystrophy (Arylsulfatase A [EC.3.1.6.8] deficiency) storage of the glycosphingolipid ...

Olaparib Attenuates Demyelination and Neuroinflammation in an Organotypic Slice Culture Model of Metachromatic Leukodystrophy. [PDF]
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a severe demyelinating, autosomal recessive genetic leukodystrophy. The disease is underpinned by mutations in the arylsulfatase A gene (ARSA), resulting in deficient activity of the arylsulfatase A lysosomal enzyme ...

Exploring the Cost-Effectiveness of Newborn Screening for Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) in the UK. [PDF]
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a fatal inherited lysosomal storage disease that can be detected through newborn bloodspot screening. The feasibility of the screening assay and the clinical rationale for screening for MLD have been previously ...

Metachromatic Leukodystrophy Presenting with Multiple Cranial Nerve and Lumbosacral Nerve Root Enhancement Without White Matter Changes [PDF]
Background: Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that causes demyelination of both the central (CNS) and peripheral nervous systems (PNS). Objective: This study aims to report a unique MLD case presenting with cranial

Metachromatic leukodystrophy and transplantation: remyelination, no cross‐correction
Objective In metachromatic leukodystrophy, a lysosomal storage disorder due to decreased arylsulfatase A activity, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may stop brain demyelination and allow remyelination, thereby halting white matter degeneration ...
