Audiologic evaluations of children with mucopolysaccharidosis
INTRODUCTION: Mucopolysaccharidosis is a hereditary lysosomal storage disease, which develops due to a deficiency in the enzymes that play a role in the metabolism of glycosaminoglycans (GAG).

Impact of elosulfase alfa in patients with morquio A syndrome who have limited ambulation: An open-label, phase 2 study. [PDF]
Efficacy and safety of elosulfase alfa enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) were assessed in an open-label, phase 2, multi-national study in Morquio A patients aged ≥5 years unable to walk ≥30 meters in the 6-min walk test.

Assessment of functional capacity of teens who are Mucopolysaccharidosis type II carriers
Introduction: Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is an X-linked genetic disease which almost exclusively affects males. The disease presents a multisystem form, caused by the progressive accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in tissues and organs.

Allergic Reactions at Enzyme Replacement Therapy in Children with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is rare hereditary disease caused by changes in the IDS gene and associated deficiency of lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S).

Spinal involvement in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome): presentation, diagnosis and management. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome, is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GALNS). MPS IVA is multisystemic but manifests

We identify a female patient with a homozygous nonsense variant (p.Gln38Ter) in the LYSET gene. This is the first western report of a challenging case of an extensive diagnostic odyssey and demonstrates that the LYSET gene must be considered in the differential diagnosis when M6P‐labeled lysosomal enzymes are altered.

Neonatal umbilical cord blood transplantation halts skeletal disease progression in the murine model of MPS-I [PDF]
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) is a promising source of stem cells to use in early haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) approaches for several genetic diseases that can be diagnosed at birth.

Iduronate 2‐sulfatase (IDS; purple) is expressed as a precursor protein that goes through multiple steps of maturation, modification, and trafficking to become an active lysosomal enzyme that degrades glycosaminoglycans. Our study shows that the transmembrane ubiquitin ligases RNF13 (orange) and RNF167 (pink) heterodimerize, affecting IDS intracellular

Multi‐omics Mendelian randomization reveals causal roles of four autophagy‐related genes (FNBP1, IDUA, C9orf72, USP35) in ALS risk, with FNBP1 and USP35 increasing risk and IDUA and C9orf72 protective, shedding light on autophagy‐mediated mechanisms and offering early evidence of novel therapeutic targets for ALS.
