Ex Vivo Gene Therapy Treats Bone Complications of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II Mouse Models through Bone Remodeling Reactivation

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2020
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II is a disease caused by organ accumulation of glycosaminoglycans due to iduronate 2-sulfatase deficiency. This study investigated the pathophysiology of the bone complications associated with mucopolysaccharidosis II and the ...

Female Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II): Insights From the Hunter Outcome Survey. [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Rep
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis II is a rare, X‐linked disease, with very few reports of affected female patients. Natural history data describe a predominantly male population, and appropriate disease characterization in female patients is lacking. This analysis explores the somatic disease burden and clinical progression of female patients with MPS II

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II: One Hundred Years of Research, Diagnosis, and Treatment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) was first described by Dr. Charles Hunter in 1917. Since then, about one hundred years have passed and Hunter syndrome, although at first neglected for a few decades and afterwards mistaken for a ...

Novel subtype of mucopolysaccharidosis caused by arylsulfatase K (ARSK) deficiency

open access: yesJournal of Medical Genetics, 2021
Background Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are monogenic metabolic disorders that significantly affect the skeleton. Eleven enzyme defects in the lysosomal degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been assigned to the known MPS subtypes (I–IX ...

Treatment of skeletal and non-skeletal alterations of Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA by AAV-mediated gene therapy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPSIVA) or Morquio A disease, a lysosomal storage disorder, is caused by N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase (GALNS) deficiency, resulting in keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin-6-sulfate accumulation.

Bi‐allelic VPS16 variants limit HOPS/CORVET levels and cause a mucopolysaccharidosis‐like disease

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2021
Lysosomal storage diseases, including mucopolysaccharidoses, result from genetic defects that impair lysosomal catabolism. Here, we describe two patients from two independent families presenting with progressive psychomotor regression, delayed ...

Clinical trial of laronidase in Hurler syndrome after hematopoietic cell transplantation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BackgroundMucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS IH) is a lysosomal storage disease treated with hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) because it stabilizes cognitive deterioration, but is insufficient to alleviate all somatic manifestations.

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I: A Review of the Natural History and Molecular Pathology

open access: yesCells, 2020
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disease, caused by deficiency of the enzyme α-L-iduronidase, resulting in accumulation of the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) dermatan and heparan sulfate in organs and tissues.

Gene Therapy for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II—A Review of the Current Possibilities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is a lysosomal storage disorder based on a mutation in the IDS gene that encodes iduronate 2-sulphatase. As a result, there is an accumulation of glycosaminoglycans—heparan sulphate and dermatan sulphate—in almost ...

Impact of intracerebroventricular enzyme replacement therapy in patients with neuronopathic mucopolysaccharidosis type II

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2021
This open-label, phase 1/2 study (JMACCT CTR JMA-IIA00350) evaluated the efficacy and safety of intracerebroventricular idursulfase beta in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II). Herein, we report the 100-week results.
