Impact of enzyme replacement therapy and migalastat on left atrial strain and cardiomyopathy in patients with Fabry disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
AimsCardiomyopathy in Fabry disease (FD) is a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. This study investigates the effects of FD-specific treatment using enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and chaperone therapy on left atrial (LA) function using two ...

Switch from enzyme replacement therapy to oral chaperone migalastat for treating fabry disease: real-life data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The treatment options for Fabry disease (FD) are enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with agalsidase alfa or beta, and the oral pharmacological chaperone migalastat.

Long-term efficacy of migalastat in females with Fabry disease. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Med Genet
Background Fabry disease is a progressive, X-linked lysosomal disorder caused by reduced or absent α-galactosidase A activity due to GLA variants. Females with Fabry disease often experience diagnostic delays and an underappreciated disease burden ...

Unraveling A4GALT Mechanism and Its Modulation With Adamantyl‐Galactosylceramide Analogues: Advancing Fabry Disease Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 41, 5 October 2026.
A 310‐helix‐mediated conformational switch promotes a front‐face SNi‐like catalysis by human A4GALT. Mechanism‐guided design identifies AdaGalCer as a selective modulator of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) biosynthesis, opening a clear route toward new Fabry disease therapeutics.

Migalastat Treatment in a Kidney-Transplanted Patient with Fabry Disease and N215S Mutation: The First Case Report

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene, leading to deficient α-galactosidase A activity and, consequently, to glycosphingolipid accumulation in a wide variety of cells.

The validation of pharmacogenetics for the identification of Fabry patients to be treated with migalastat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PURPOSE: Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene. Migalastat, a pharmacological chaperone, binds to specific mutant forms of α-galactosidase A to restore lysosomal activity.

Mean (SD) plasma migalastat concentration-time profiles following co-administration of agalsidase with 450 mg or 150 mg migalastat HCl, and 150 mg migalastat HCl alone.

open access: yes, 2015
Whether co-administered with agalsidase (Stage 1/Period 2) or administered alone (Stage 1/Period 3), plasma migalastat concentrations were similar at all post-dose time points.

Strong increase of leukocyte apha‐galactosidase A activity in two male patients with Fabry disease following oral chaperone therapy

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2019
Background Fabry disease (OMIM 301500) is an X‐linked disorder caused by alpha‐galactosidase A (α‐Gal A) deficiency. The administration of a pharmacologic chaperone (migalastat) in Fabry patients with amenable mutations has been reported to improve or ...

Treatment of Fabry Nephropathy: A Literature Review

open access: yesMedicina, 2023
Fabry disease is an X-linked inherited lysosomal storage disorder with a deficiency of α-galactosidase A activity, which results in the intracellular accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and related glycosphingolipids in various organs.

Role of Biomarkers in Diagnosing Disease, Assessing the Severity and Progression of Disease, and Evaluating the Efficacy of Therapies. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT This paper reviews biomarkers in lysosomal disease according to their categories and definitions. There are numerous biomarkers in lysosomal diseases. Some are disease or organ‐specific, but most are not. Organ‐specific biomarkers are especially useful, but most biomarkers help with diagnosis, assessing disease severity, prognosis, and ...
