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

Alkaline Phosphatase and Infantile GM1 Gangliosidosis: A Simple Biomarker for a Complex Disease? [PDF]
ABSTRACT GM1 gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disease (LSD) caused by β‐galactosidase deficiency, characterized by the accumulation of gangliosides in various tissues. Among different GM1 forms (infantile form, late‐infantile and juvenile form, and late‐onset form), the infantile form is the most severe: despite an early clinical onset with rapid ...
