Role of Biomarkers in Diagnosing Disease, Assessing the Severity and Progression of Disease, and Evaluating the Efficacy of Therapies

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 3, May 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper reviews biomarkers in lysosomal disease according to their categories and definitions. There are numerous biomarkers in lysosomal diseases. Some are disease or organ‐specific, but most are not. Organ‐specific biomarkers are especially useful, but most biomarkers help with diagnosis, assessing disease severity, prognosis, and ...

Loss of carbohydrate sulfotransferase 6 function leads to macular corneal dystrophy phenotypes and skeletal defects in zebrafish

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 2, Page 373-390, January 2025.
Macular corneal dystrophy (MCD) is a rare disease leading to blindness. Here, the first preclinical MCD model was developed via the generation of carbohydrate sulfotransferase 6 (chst6) mutant zebrafish lines with CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Opaque aggregates typical of the disease were formed in the mutant fish eyes, and sulfated keratan sulfates were ...
