A Blood-Brain-Barrier-Penetrating Anti-human Transferrin Receptor Antibody Fusion Protein for Neuronopathic Mucopolysaccharidosis II [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is an X-linked recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene. Since IDS catalyzes the degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), deficiency in this enzyme leads to ...

Iduronate-2-Sulfatase with Anti-human Transferrin Receptor Antibody for Neuropathic Mucopolysaccharidosis II: A Phase 1/2 Trial [PDF]
Hunter syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis II [MPS II]), a deficiency of iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS), causes an accumulation of glycosaminoglycans, giving rise to multiple systemic and CNS symptoms.

Neurodevelopmental status and adaptive behavior of pediatric patients with mucopolysaccharidosis II: a longitudinal observational study. [PDF]
Background Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) II is a rare, X-linked lysosomal storage disease. Approximately two-thirds of patients have central nervous system involvement with some demonstrating progressive cognitive impairment (neuronopathic disease).
