Tay – Sachs Disease

open access: yesScholars Academic Journal of Pharmacy, 2021
Tay-Sachs disease is a rare hereditary disease that increasingly destroys nerve cells (neurons) in the brain and nerve structure. The foremost common variety of monogenic disorder becomes apparent in infancy. Babies with this disease usually look traditional till the age of three to six months, once their development slows and muscles used for movement

Preconception risk assessment for thalassaemia, sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis and Tay-Sachs disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Globally, about five per cent of children are born with congenital or genetic disorders. The most common autosomal recessive conditions are thalassaemia, sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis and Tay-Sachs disease, with higher carrier rates in

An Inducible Mouse Model of Late Onset Tay–Sachs Disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2002
Mouse models of the GM2 gangliosidoses, Tay–Sachs and Sandhoff disease, are null for the hexosaminidase α and β subunits respectively. The Sandhoff (Hexb−/−) mouse has severe neurological disease and mimics the human infantile onset variant. However, the

Mice doubly-deficient in lysosomal hexosaminidase A and neuraminidase 4 show epileptic crises and rapid neuronal loss. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2010
Tay-Sachs disease is a severe lysosomal disorder caused by mutations in the HexA gene coding for the α-subunit of lysosomal β-hexosaminidase A, which converts G(M2) to G(M3) ganglioside. Hexa(-/-) mice, depleted of β-hexosaminidase A, remain asymptomatic

Tay Sachs-ова болест -приказ на случај [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tay Sachs's disease is a rare disorder, genetically inherited from parents of a child. It is caused by the absence of an enzyme that helps dissolve the fatty substances.

Natural history study of glycan accumulation in large animal models of GM2 gangliosidoses.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
β-hexosaminidase is an enzyme responsible for the degradation of gangliosides, glycans, and other glycoconjugates containing β-linked hexosamines that enter the lysosome. GM2 gangliosidoses, such as Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff, are lysosomal storage disorders

open access: yesПедиатрическая фармакология, 2021
Background. GM2-gangliosidosis, type I (Tay-Sachs disease) is rare hereditary disease caused by mutations in the HEXA gene encoding the alpha subunit of lysosomal hexosaminidase A.

In cellulo examination of a beta-alpha hybrid construct of beta-hexosaminidase A subunits, reported to interact with the GM2 activator protein and hydrolyze GM2 ganglioside. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The hydrolysis in lysosomes of GM2 ganglioside to GM3 ganglioside requires the correct synthesis, intracellular assembly and transport of three separate gene products; i.e., the alpha and beta subunits of heterodimeric beta-hexosaminidase A, E.C. # 3.2.1.
