Emerging Paediatric Uses of Dupilumab Beyond Approvals
Dupilumab, through IL‐4Rα blockade, shows promising efficacy beyond approved indications in paediatric diseases driven by T2 inflammation. Emerging evidence—mainly from small studies—supports improvements in disease severity and quality of life, highlighting its potential as a targeted, steroid‐sparing therapy while underscoring the need for ...

Analysis of the upper airway by the acoustic reflection method in children with mucopolysaccharidosis: Acoustic reflection in mucopolysaccharidosis [PDF]
International audienceBackground Upper airway obstruction is common in children with mucopolysaccharidosis. The acoustic reflection method is a noninvasive technique that can analyse the calibre of the upper airways.

Gene Therapy for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II—A Review of the Current Possibilities [PDF]
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 ...

We set out to characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in the recently delineated KDM2B‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder. We observe a highly penetrant CxxC domain‐related phenotype with distinct facial features supported by GestaltMatcher. In contrast, our findings point to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of loss‐of‐function ...

Brain‐targeted stem cell gene therapy corrects mucopolysaccharidosis type II via multiple mechanisms
The pediatric lysosomal storage disorder mucopolysaccharidosis type II is caused by mutations in IDS, resulting in accumulation of heparan and dermatan sulfate, causing severe neurodegeneration, skeletal disease, and cardiorespiratory disease.

Safety considerations of gene‐based therapies for Alzheimer's disease
Abstract Gene‐based therapies show increasing promise for the treatment of neurologic disease. In 2016, nusinersen, an RNA‐based therapy, was approved for children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Over 200 clinical trials have utilized gene therapy approaches for a host of neurodegenerative and neuromuscular disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (

ABSTRACT Almost all patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) develop respiratory dysfunction of varying severity during disease progression. While respiratory disease in MPS has traditionally been attributed to upper airway obstruction caused by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation in the trachea and bronchi, involvement of the intrapulmonary ...
