Three-dimensional human mucopolysaccharidosis IVA chondrocyte culture reveals significant impairments in the lysosomal-mitochondrial crosstalk [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA) is a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by a deficiency of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase enzyme. MPS IVA patients suffer from skeletal dysplasia due to the abnormal function of chondrocytes.

Bone Growth Induction in Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA Mouse. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA; Morquio A syndrome) is caused by a deficiency of the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate-sulfatase (GALNS) enzyme, leading to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG), keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin-6-sulfate (C6S), mainly in cartilage and bone.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA in children: Clinical cases
Background. Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (Morquio syndrome) is a rare genetic lysosomal storage disease. Due to rarity, the syndrome is typically diagnosed at a later stage of gross affections of musculoskeletal and central nervous systems, leading to ...

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA, or Morquio syndrome type A) is an inherited metabolic lysosomal disease caused by the deficiency of the N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase enzyme. The deficiency of this enzyme accumulates the specific glycosaminoglycans (GAG), keratan sulfate, and chondroitin-6-sulfate mainly in bone, cartilage, and its ...

Therapies of mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio A syndrome) [PDF]
Morquio A syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA, MPS IVA) is one of the lysosomal storage diseases and is caused by the deficiency of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase (GALNS). Deficiency of this enzyme leads to accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin-6-sulfate (C6S).
