Circumventing antivector immunity: potential use of nonhuman adenoviral vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Adenoviruses are efficient gene delivery vectors based on their ability to transduce a wide variety of cell types and drive high-level transient transgene expression. While there have been advances in modifying human adenoviral (HAdV) vectors to increase

Typical presentation of mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA: a case report

open access: yesInternational Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA, or Morquio syndrome, is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by skeletal dysplasia. It is caused due to deficiency in the enzyme N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS), which results from an autosomal recessive mutation in the GALNS gene. The frequency of this mutation is equivalent in men and women.

Oxidative stress and inflammation in mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA patients treated with enzyme replacement therapy

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2015
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA) is an inborn error of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) catabolism due to the deficient activity of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase that leads to accumulation of the keratan sulfate and chondroitin 6-sulfate in body fluids and in lysosomes. The pathophysiology of this lysosomal storage disorder is not completely

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA: common double deletion in the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase gene (GALNS)

open access: yesGenomics, 1995
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency in N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS). We found two separate deletions of nearly 8.0 and 6.0 kb in the GALNS gene, including some exons. There are Alu repetitive elements near the breakpoints of the 8.0-kb deletion, and this deletion resulted from an ...

Relationships among Height, Weight, Body Mass Index, and Age in Taiwanese Children with Different Types of Mucopolysaccharidoses

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2019
Background: Children with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) generally appear unaffected at birth but may develop multiple clinical manifestations including profound growth impairment as they grow older. Each type of MPS has a variable age at onset and variable
