Mucopolysaccharidosis type II: Enzyme Replacement Therapy Efficiency
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), or Hunter syndrome, is the hereditary lysosomal storage disease caused by pathological variants in IDS gene. Such variants lead to iduronate-2-sulfatase enzyme deficiency and glycosaminoglycan catabolism disorder ...

Non-Neuropathic Form of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II: Clinical Cases
Background. Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type II is an X-linked hereditary disease from the lysosomal storage diseases group. The absence or malfunctioning of the iduronate-2-sulfatase enzyme leads to disruption in glycosaminoglycans (GAG) degradation ...
