Abstract:
Previously, we reported a novel disease of impaired glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) metabolism without deficiency of known lysosomal enzymes—mucopolysaccharidosis-plus syndrome (MPSPS). MPSPS, whose pathophysiology is not elucidated, is an autosomal recessive multisystem disorder caused by a specific mutation p.R498W in the VPS33A gene. VPS33A functions in endocytic and autophagic pathways, but p.R498W mutation did not affect both of these pathways in the patient’s skin fibroblast. Nineteen patients with MPSPS have been identified: seventeen patients were found among the Yakut population (Russia) an

Abstract:
Mucopolysaccharidosis, type IIIB (MPS IIIB) is a rare disease caused by mutations in the N-alpha-acetylglucosaminidase (NAGLU) gene resulting in decreased or absent enzyme activity. On the cellular level, the disorder is characterized by the massive lysosomal storage of heparan sulfate (HS)—one species of glycosaminoglycans. HS is a sulfur-rich macromolecule, and its accumulation should affect the turnover of total sulfur in cells; according to the studies presented here, it, indeed, does. The lysosomal degradation of HS in cells produces monosaccharides and inorganic sulfate (SO42−). Sulfate

Mucopolysaccharidosis belongs to a group of metabolic disorders caused by absence or defective activity of lysosomal enzymes. Mucopolysaccharides are major components of intercellular connective tissue and defect in their metabolism leads to an accumulation of incompletely degraded mucopolysaccharides in the lysosomes which affect various body systems through enzymatic activity. We present a case of mucopolysaccharidosis type II with hallmark cutaneous features, mild mental retardation associated with radiological changes.

Abstract Background Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (MPS1) is a rare debilitating multisystem lysosomal disorder resulting due to the deficiency of α-L-iduronidase enzyme (IDUA), caused by recessive mutations in the IDUA gene.

Introduction: GM1-gangliosidosis is an inherited metabolic disease caused by mutations in the GLB1 gene resulting in deficiency of β-galactosidase. Three forms have been identified: Infantile, juvenile, and adult. The infantile type progresses rapidly and aggressively and a delayed diagnosis hampers the prevention of many neurological deficits. This delay in diagnosis may be due to the variability of clinical expression of the disorder.

Abstract:
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPSI) (OMIM #252800) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the IDUA gene encoding for the lysosomal alpha-L-iduronidase enzyme. The deficiency of this enzyme causes systemic accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although disease manifestations are typically not apparent at birth, they can present early in life, are progressive, and include a wide spectrum of phenotypic findings. Among these, the storage of GAGs within the lysosomes disrupts cell function and metabolism in the cartilage, thus impairing normal bone development and

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of inborn errors of metabolism with an aggressive and usually fatal course. Therefore, early treatment is essential because the involvement of head and neck structures is almost always present in MPS. Our study aimed to retrospectively assess—via a chart review and a survey of caregivers—the history of ear, nose and throat (ENT) symptoms, the number of otolaryngology visits prior to diagnosis, and whether otolaryngologists diagnosed the disease in a cohort of MPS patients followed at an academic medical center. Twenty-three patients were evaluated. Age a

Abstract:
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are a group of rare genetic disorders within the larger family of lysosomal diseases. MPSs disorders are caused by a deficiency in the activity of a specific lysosomal enzyme required for the degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). MPS type II, also called Hunter syndrome consists in a deficiency of an enzyme, iduronate-2-sulphatase. We present a rare case of Hunter syndrome with atypical presentation. It is a case about a boy of 2.7 year old who presented to the Paediatric Clinic with symptoms of a respiratory tract infection and a history of frequent ear infect

ABSTRACT Some inborn errors of metabolism due to deficiencies of soluble lysosomal enzymes cause global neurodegenerative disease. Representative examples include the infantile and late infantile forms of the ceroid lipofuscinoses (CLN1 or CLN2 deficiency, respectively) and mucopolysaccharidoses type VII (MPS VII), a deficiency of β-glucuronidase. Treatment of the central nervous system component of these disorders will require widespread protein or enzyme replacement, either through dissemination of the protein or through dissemination of a gene encoding it.

AbstractLysosomal storage disorders characterized by altered metabolism of heparan sulfate, including Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) III and MPS-II, exhibit lysosomal dysfunctions leading to neurodegeneration and dementia in children. In lysosomal storage disorders, dementia is preceded by severe and therapy-resistant autistic-like symptoms of unknown cause. Using mouse and cellular models of MPS-IIIA, we discovered that autistic-like behaviours are due to increased proliferation of mesencephalic dopamine neurons originating during embryogenesis, which is not due to lysosomal dysfunction, but to

Here, we generated a disease model to study the early stages of cartilage pathology in MPS VI.

Background: Mucopolysaccharidosis-1H (Hurler syndrome, MPS-1H) is the most severe form of a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by variants in IDUA, encoding alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA). MPS-1H is also associated with various degree of skeletal defects due to the accumulation of partially degraded glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the lysosomes of connective tissue cells. The efficacy of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and enzymatic replacement therapy (ERT) on MPS-1H skeletal manifestations are still considered not satisfactory.
