A Multiplex Assay for the Diagnosis of Mucopolysaccharidoses and Mucolipidoses.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
IntroductionDiagnosis of the mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) generally relies on an initial analysis of total glycosaminoglycan (GAG) excretion in urine. Often the dimethylmethylene blue dye-binding (DMB) assay is used, although false-negative results have ...

Mucolipidoses Overview: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Mucolipidosis II and III (ML II/III) are caused by a deficiency of uridine-diphosphate N-acetylglucosamine: lysosomal-enzyme-N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase (GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase, EC2.7.8.17), which tags lysosomal enzymes with a mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) marker for transport to the lysosome.

Glycosaminoglycan levels in dried blood spots of patients with mucopolysaccharidoses and mucolipidoses [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2017
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) and mucolipidoses (ML) are groups of lysosomal storage disorders in which lysosomal hydrolases are deficient leading to accumulation of undegraded glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), throughout the body, subsequently resulting in progressive damage to multiple tissues and organs.

Clinical Characterization of Mucolipidoses II and III: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Genetics, 2019
AbstractMucolipidoses (MLs) II and III are rare lysosomal diseases caused by deficiency of GlcNAc-1-phosphotransferase, and clinical manifestations are multisystemic. Clinical and demographic data from 1983 to 2013 were obtained retrospectively. Twenty-seven patients were included (ML II = 15, ML III α/beta = 9, ML III gamma = 3).

Clinical outcomes of laminoplasty for patients with lysosomal storage disease including mucopolysaccharidosis and mucolipidoses: a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Although the clinical efficacy of laminoplasty in adult cervical spondylotic myelopathy or ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament has been frequently reported, there are only few reports of laminoplasty for patients with lysosome ...

Severe dilated cardiomyopathy as an unusual clinical presentation in an infant with sialidosis type II

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2023
We report a unique case of an infant with a severe dilated cardiomyopathy as the clinical presentation of sialidosis type II (OMIM 256550), a rare autosomal recessive inherited lysosomal storage disease that is characterized by partial or complete ...

Corneal dystrophies

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2009
The term corneal dystrophy embraces a heterogenous group of bilateral genetically determined non-inflammatory corneal diseases that are restricted to the cornea. The designation is imprecise but remains in vogue because of its clinical value. Clinically,

Hyperglycopeptiduria in Genetic Mucolipidoses

open access: yesThe Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1974
Urinary cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC)-precipitates and non-CPC-precipitates in normal male children and seven patients with a new type of mucolipidosis, GM1-gangliosidosis type 1, I-cell disease, Hurler syndrome, Morquio syndrome, Gaucher's disease adult type and Tay-Sachs disease were studied using several methods including Sephadex G-25 gel ...
