Chronic enzyme replacement therapy ameliorates neuropathology in alpha‐mannosidosis mice
OBJECTIVE The lysosomal storage disease alpha-mannosidosis is caused by the deficiency of the lysosomal acid hydrolase alpha-mannosidase (LAMAN) leading to lysosomal accumulation of neutral mannose-linked oligosaccharides throughout the body, including the brain. Clinical findings in alpha-mannosidosis include skeletal malformations, intellectual disabilities and hearing impairment. To date, no...
متن کاملEnzyme replacement therapy for murine mucopolysaccharidosis type VII.
Recombinant mouse beta-glucuronidase administered intravenously to newborn mice with mucopolysaccharidosis type VII (MPS VII) is rapidly cleared from the circulation and localized in many tissues. Here we determine the tissue distribution of injected enzyme and describe its effects on the histopathology in 6-wk-old MPS VII mice that received either one injection of 28,000 U recombinant beta-glu...
متن کاملPancreatic Enzyme Replacement Therapy
Patients with chronic pancreatic insufficiency develop improper digestion due to the lack of digestive pancreatic enzymes. Such patients might complain of diarrhea and multi-nutrient deficiencies. Children with cystic fibrosis are at an increased risk of developing pancreatic insufficiency, while adults can develop chronic pancreatitis due to gallbladder disease or alcohol consumption. Regardle...
متن کاملCeruloplasmin replacement therapy ameliorates neurological symptoms in a preclinical model of aceruloplasminemia
Aceruloplasminemia is a monogenic disease caused by mutations in the ceruloplasmin gene that result in loss of protein ferroxidase activity. Ceruloplasmin plays a role in iron homeostasis, and its activity impairment leads to iron accumulation in liver, pancreas, and brain. Iron deposition promotes diabetes, retinal degeneration, and progressive neurodegeneration. Current therapies mainly based...
متن کاملEffects of Enzyme Replacement Therapy Started Late in a Murine Model of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is a progressive disorder caused by deficiency of α-L-iduronidase (IDUA), which leads to storage of heparan and dermatan sulphate. It is suggested that early enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) leads to better outcomes, although many patients are diagnosed late and don't receive immediate treatment. This study aims to evaluate the effects of late onset ERT in a...
