Spinal involvement in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome): presentation, diagnosis and management [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome, is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GALNS). MPS IVA is multisystemic but manifests

Abstract Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and sialic acid (total and free) assays are used as first‐line screening tests for the diagnosis of mucopolysaccharidoses and glycoproteinoses, respectively. There is a pronounced age‐dependent variation in the urinary concentrations of these metabolites in the normal population, and the stratification of the reference ...

Our review reports on qualitative, quantitative, and chronological monitoring of lysosomal protein trafficking, and of autophagic and heterophagic fluxes to acidic, degradative endolysosomes. We provide an up‐to‐date description of available single‐ and tandem‐fluorescent reporters, mono‐ and multi‐modal microscopy techniques, and artificial ...
