Inclusion Cell Disease - A Rare Cause of Megalocornea with Corneal Edema
Inclusion cell disease (I cell disease), also known as mucolipidosis type II, is a rare congenital metabolic storage disorder which seemingly occupies an intermediate position between mucopolysaccharidosis and sphingolipidosis.1 We are hereby presenting ...

ABSTRACT Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with elosulfase alfa is the only approved treatment for mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA. This case report delineates the 5‐year outcomes of ERT in two Korean siblings with mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA, with the younger sibling initiating treatment at 0.8 years of age and the older one at 5.4 years.

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.

A phase I/II study of intrathecal idursulfase-IT in children with severe mucopolysaccharidosis II [PDF]
Approximately two-thirds of patients with the lysosomal storage disease mucopolysaccharidosis II have progressive cognitive impairment. Intravenous (i.v.) enzyme replacement therapy does not affect cognitive impairment because recombinant iduronate-2 ...

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

alpha-L-Iduronidase and enzyme replacement therapy for mucopolysaccharidosis I [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis I (McKusick 25280, Hurler syndrome, Scheie syndrome) is caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal hydrolase, α-L-iduronidase (EC 3.2.1.76) and results in a failure to degrade the glycosaminoglycans, dermatan sulfate and heparan ...

ABSTRACT Background Immunocompromised children with hematologic malignancies or undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are at high risk for invasive fungal diseases (IFDs). Reported incidence varies considerably due to heterogeneous diagnostic criteria, antifungal strategies and environmental conditions.

EVALUATION OF HEMATOLOGIC FINDINGS IN MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDOSIS CASES [PDF]
Introduction: Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) are lysosomal storage diseases characterized by chronic, progressive and multiple system involvement due to impaired glycosaminoglycans destruction. There are 7 types of MPS as type I, II, III, IV, VI, VII and IX.
