Human Acid Sphingomyelinase Structures Provide Insight to Molecular Basis of Niemann-Pick Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) hydrolyzes sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphocholine, essential components of myelin in neurons. Genetic alterations in ASM lead to ASM deficiency (ASMD) and have been linked to Niemann–Pick disease types A and B. Olipudase

Glycoprotein non-metastatic protein B (GPNMB) plasma values in patients with chronic visceral acid sphingomyelinase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a rare LSD characterized by lysosomal accumulation of sphingomyelin, primarily in macrophages. With the recent availability of enzyme replacement therapy, the need for biomarkers to assess severity of disease ...

Zebra-Sphinx: Modeling Sphingolipidoses in Zebrafish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Sphingolipidoses are inborn errors of metabolism due to the pathogenic mutation of genes that encode for lysosomal enzymes, transporters, or enzyme cofactors that participate in the sphingolipid catabolism.

Adults With Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency Have Sustained Improvements in Clinical Outcomes With up to 5 Years of Olipudase Alfa Enzyme Replacement Therapy: ASCEND Trial Final Results

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a rare debilitating lysosomal storage disease resulting in multisystemic disease manifestations, significant disease burden, and early mortality for some individuals. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with olipudase alfa (Xenpozyme) is the first disease‐specific treatment indicated for noncentral ...
