The diagnostic journey for patients with late-onset GM2 Gangliosidoses

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2023
Late-onset forms of GM2 gangliosidosis―mainly, Tay-Sachs disease and Sandhoff disease―are under-recognized in clinical practice. In these rare lysosomal storage disorders, deficiency of β-hexosaminidase A results in excessive accumulation of GM2 ...

Niemann-Pick Type C Disease Reveals a Link between Lysosomal Cholesterol and PtdIns(4,5)P2 That Regulates Neuronal Excitability. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
There is increasing evidence that the lysosome is involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of neurodegenerative disorders. Thus, mechanisms that link lysosome dysfunction to the disruption of neuronal homeostasis offer opportunities to understand the ...

A Case Refort of Sandhoff Disease

open access: yesKorean Journal of Ophthalmology, 2005
Sandhoff disease is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disease presenting bilateral optic atrophy and a cherry red spot in the macula. This case report presents the characteristics of a patient with Sandhoff disease as assessed by ophthalmic, neuroimaging, and laboratory procedures.

Globotriaosylceramide Gb3 Influences Wound Healing and Scar Formation by Orchestrating Fibroblast Heterogeneity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 41, November 6, 2025.
In superficial second‐degree burn wounds, Gb3 turns on genes related to papillary cells through the FGF2 signaling pathway. This increases the ability of cells to break down fibrin and decreases fibrosis, which ultimately prevents scar formation in burn injuries.

Similar content of phospholipids and gangliosides in normal and homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia fibroblasts.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1978
The cellular content of total and individual phospholipids and gangliosides was measured in fibroblasts cultured from four normal subjects, three patients with lysosomal lipid storage diseases, and two subjects with homozygous familial ...

Apoptotic signaling through CD95 (Fas/Apo-1) activates an acidic sphingomyelinase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Intracellular pathways leading from membrane receptor engagement to apoptotic cell death are still poorly characterized. We investigated the intracellular signaling generated after cross-linking of CD95 (Fas/Apo-1 antigen), a broadly expressed cell ...

CRISPR Technology in Disease Management: An Updated Review of Clinical Translation and Therapeutic Potential

open access: yesCell Proliferation, Volume 58, Issue 11, November 2025.
CRISPR‐Cas systems offer transformative genome editing capabilities for precise manipulation of cellular genes. This enables two main therapeutic avenues: ex vivo modification of patient cells for re‐transplantation or direct in vivo gene targeting via advanced delivery methods.

Delivering Progranulin to Astrocytic Lysosomes Promotes Growth of Co‐Cultured Neurons

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 169, Issue 11, November 2025.
Loss‐of‐function progranulin (GRN) mutations cause frontotemporal dementia. Most of these mutations cause haploinsufficiency of progranulin, a secreted pro‐protein that has neurotrophic and anti‐inflammatory effects. Progranulin is constitutively secreted before trafficking to lysosomes and it is unclear if its effects are mediated by extracellular ...

Characterization of recombinant human lysosomal beta-hexosaminidases produced in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris

open access: yesUniversitas Scientiarum, 2016
β-hexosaminidases (Hex) are dimeric enzymes involved in the lysosomal degradation of glycolipids and glycans. They are formed by α- and/or β-subunits encoded byHEXA and HEXB genes, respectively.

A human neuronal model of Niemann Pick C disease developed from stem cells isolated from patient's skin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Niemann Pick C (NPC) disease is a neurovisceral lysosomal storage disorder due to mutations in NPC1 or NPC2 genes, characterized by the accumulation of endocytosed unesterified cholesterol, gangliosides and other lipids within the lysosomes/late ...
