Presentation and treatments for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II (MPS II; Hunter Syndrome) [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Orphan Drugs, 2017
Introduction: Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is an X- linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS). IDS deficiency leads to primary accumulation of dermatan sulfate (DS) and heparan sulfate (HS). MPS II is both multi-systemic and progressive.

Female Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II): Insights From the Hunter Outcome Survey

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis II is a rare, X‐linked disease, with very few reports of affected female patients. Natural history data describe a predominantly male population, and appropriate disease characterization in female patients is lacking. This analysis explores the somatic disease burden and clinical progression of female patients with MPS II

Osteochondrosis in horses: An overview of genetic and other factors

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 1, Page 6-19, January 2026.
Abstract Osteochondrosis (OC) is a frequent manifestation of developmental orthopaedic disease, and its severe clinical presentation is known as OC dissecans (OCD). OC is defined as a disruption of the endochondral ossification process in the epiphyseal cartilage, and this disease has been reported in different mammalian species, including humans, dogs,

Lysosomal storage diseases: mucopolysaccharidosis type I and II

open access: yesPediatrician (St. Petersburg), 2021
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) are a genetically heterogeneous group of rare monogenic metabolic diseases associated with hereditary insufficiency of lysosomal enzymes involved in the catabolism of glycosaminoglycans, or mucopolysaccharides. The pathogenesis of MPS is due to the accumulation of non-cleaved glycosaminoglycans in lysosomes, which can ...

Evolving Real‐World Data and Evidence Use for New Drugs and Regenerative Medical Products Approvals in Japan—An Analysis of the 6‐Year Trend

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 118, Issue 6, Page 1405-1421, December 2025.
Several regulatory initiatives have been made to clarify the acceptability and requirements of real‐world data and real‐world evidence (RWD/E) for the benefit/risk assessment of new medical products in Japan. The objectives of this review were to characterize the use of RWD/E in regulatory applications of new medical products and to describe the ...

Clinical efficacy of Enzyme Replacement Therapy in paediatric Hunter patients, an independent study of 3.5 years [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Hunter Syndrome is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder due to the deficit of iduronate 2-sulfatase, an enzyme catalysing the degradation of the glycosaminoglycans (GAG) dermatan- and heparan-sulfate.

A Zebra in Horse's Clothing: Rethinking the Diagnosis of Rare Diseases

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
We analyze rare diseases with common presentations to reexamine genetic testing principles. In proposing criteria that emphasize patient capacity, test utility, and proportional invasiveness, we highlight gaps between guidelines and current practice. Coordinated, patient‐centered approaches are critical to maximize benefits, minimize harms, and inform ...
