Recommendations for the management of MPS IVA: systematic evidence- and consensus-based guidance. [PDF]
IntroductionMucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA or Morquio A syndrome is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by deficiency of the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS) enzyme, which impairs lysosomal degradation of keratan ...

Prenatal Mucopolysaccharidosis II (Hunter): A Pathogenetic Study [PDF]
A prenatal diagnosis of Mucopolysaccharidosis II (M. Hunter) was made early in a pregnancy at risk in a family with one affected child. An affected fetus was diagnosed on the basis of an abnormal incorporation and degradation of 35SO4 in 35SO4-labeled mucopolysaccharides in cultured amniotic cells. Dermatan sulfate and heparin sulfate concentrations in

Individual heat map assessments demonstrate vestronidase alfa treatment response in a highly heterogeneous mucopolysaccharidosis VII study population. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) VII is an ultra-rare, progressively debilitating, life-threatening lysosomal disease caused by deficiency of the enzyme, β-glucuronidase. Vestronidase alfa is an approved enzyme replacement therapy for MPS VII. UX003-CL301 was

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II and the G374sp Mutation [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare, X-linked disease caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase, which catalyses a step in the catabolism of glycosaminoglycans resulting in accumulation of heparan and dermatan sulfate in many organs and tissues.

Perinatal Gene Transfer to the Liver [PDF]
The liver acts as a host to many functions hence raising the possibility that any one may be compromised by a single gene defect. Inherited or de novo mutations in these genes may result in relatively mild diseases or be so devastating that death within

Arterial pathology in canine mucopolysaccharidosis-I and response to therapy. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis-I (MPS-I) is an inherited deficiency of α-L-iduronidase (IdU) that causes lysosomal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in a variety of parenchymal cell types and connective tissues.

Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Management. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA, or Morquio syndrome type A) is an inherited metabolic lysosomal disease caused by the deficiency of the N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase enzyme.

Drug delivery in overcoming the blood-brain barrier: role of nasal mucosal grafting [PDF]
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a fundamental role in protecting and maintaining the homeostasis of the brain. For this reason, drug delivery to the brain is much more difficult than that to other compartments of the body. In order to bypass or cross

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a frequent syndrome in adults, but is very rare in children. CTS was described in children with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) as condition due to the deformation of carpal bones, deposition of glycosaminoglycans in ...
