Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II: A Kenyan Case Series [PDF]
Hunter syndrome, or mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 (MPS2), is a lysosomal storage disorder associated with the involvement of multiple organs such as the central nervous system, hepatomegaly, musculoskeletal, respiratory, cardiac, and hearing.

The diagnosis and management of mucopolysaccharidosis type II [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is a rare X-linked recessive inherited lysosomal storage disease. With pathogenic variants of the IDS gene, the activity of iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) is reduced or lost, causing the inability to degrade ...

Article is devoted to one of the orphan diseases — mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS), which is the result of any lysosomal enzyme deficiency (which determines the type of illness). The most common is the MPS type II (Hunter syndrome), developing as a result of

Nasal Polyposis in mucopolysaccharidosis type II. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type II is a rare multisystem disorder resulting from the accumulation of breakdown products of glycosaminoglycans in the body tissues. Many patients with this disease undergo ENT (ear, nose and throat) surgeries such as adenotonsillectomy and tympanocentesis at a very early age, much before the diagnosis of MPS.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type II: Enzyme Replacement Therapy Efficiency
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), or Hunter syndrome, is the hereditary lysosomal storage disease caused by pathological variants in IDS gene. Such variants lead to iduronate-2-sulfatase enzyme deficiency and glycosaminoglycan catabolism disorder ...

Diagnosis and Management of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II (Hunter Syndrome) in Poland [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; also known as Hunter syndrome) is a rare, inherited lysosomal storage disease. The disease is caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulphatase (I2S) due to mutations in the IDS gene, which leads ...

Biomarkers in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II and IV
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), dermatan sulfate (DS), heparan sulfate (HS), and keratan sulfate (KS), are the primary biomarkers in patients with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS); however, little is known about other biomarkers.
