Mucopolysaccharidosis IV A (MPS IVA) is a lysosomal disorder caused by mutations in the GALNS gene. Consequently, the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) keratan sulfate and chondroitin 6-sulfate accumulate in the lysosomal lumen.

Abstract Molecular genetics enables more precise diagnoses of skeletal dysplasia and other skeletal disorders (SDs). We investigated the clinical utility of multigene panel testing for 5011 unrelated individuals with SD in the United States (December 2019–April 2022).

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA) is an inborn error of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) catabolism characterized by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme, N‐acetylgalactosamine 6‐sulphatase (GALNS).

We modeled substrate interactions in NAGLU′s active site and predicted allosteric sites. Virtual screening against a human‐tested molecule database identified potential pharmacological chaperones (PCs). In vitro evaluations confirmed their binding to NAGLU and ability to restore enzymatic activity in MPS IIIB fibroblasts with mutant enzymes.

Abstract Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) I is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by deficient alpha‐l‐iduronidase activity, leading to abnormal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in cells and tissues. Synovial joint disease is prevalent and significantly reduces patient quality of life.

Abstract Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) in adults have milder phenotype and variable age at presentation. Several studies have described the phenotype, genotype and treatment outcomes for adult‐onset LSDs like Gaucher, Fabry, Pompe disease and others. We describe the first systematic study on the occurrence of LSDs in an adult population from India.

Gene therapies for mucopolysaccharidoses
Abstract Current specific treatments for mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) include enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Both treatments are hampered by several limitations, including lack of efficacy on brain and skeletal manifestations, need for lifelong injections, and high costs.
