Molecular analysis of mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio A) in Spain
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (Morquio A) is an inherited metabolic disease with autosomal recessive inheritance. The pathology is due to a deficient activity of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate-sulfatase, which is involved in the degradation of keratan sulfate and chondroitin-6-sulfate.

Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA: Current Disease Models and Drawbacks [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA) is a rare disorder caused by mutations in the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate-sulfatase (GALNS) encoding gene. GALNS leads to the lysosomal degradation of the glycosaminoglyccreasans keratan sulfate and chondroitin 6-sulfate. Impaired GALNS enzymes result in skeletal and non-skeletal complications in patients.

Iron oxide-coupled CRISPR-nCas9-based genome editing assessment in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA mice [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GALNS gene that leads to the lysosomal accumulation of keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin 6-sulfate, causing skeletal dysplasia and cardiopulmonary complications.

Cochlear implantation in a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis IVA [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (OMIM 253000; also known as Morquio A syndrome) is associated with skeletal, airway, and hearing abnormalities. Cochlear implantation is an effective intervention for patients with severe-to-profound hearing loss.

Atypical presentation of mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA
A 14 year old patient with short stature, type I diabetes, and cataracts was referred for evaluation of avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Radiography was suggestive of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia with decreased bone mineral density for age ...

Pathophysiology of Hip Disorders in Patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA [PDF]
Patients with mucopolysaccharidoses IVA (MPS IVA) have a progressive accumulation of the specific glycosaminoglycans (GAGs): chondroitin-6-sulfate (C6S) and keratan sulfate (KS), leading to the degeneration of the cartilage matrix and its connective ...
