Nine patients aged 3.5- 14 years have received a mean of 2 (range 0.5-3.5) yea...
متن کاملEnzyme replacement therapy for Fabry disease: proving the clinical benefit.
Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder that results from a deficiency of the enzyme a-galactosidase A (a-Gal A). The lack of a-Gal A leads to incomplete metabolism and progressive lysosomal accumulation of glycosphingolipids, particularly globotriaosylceramide (GL3). This process causes damage to endothelial, perithelial and smooth-muscle cells of the vascular system, glomerula...

متن کاملEnzyme replacement therapy for lysosomal storage diseases.
Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) has been approved for 6 lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) worldwide including Japan. These diseases include Gaucher disease (GD), Fabry disease, mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) types I, II, and VI, and Pompe disease (PD). The efficacy and safety of ERT for LSDs has been confirmed by extensive clinical trials. However, there are still obstacles to successful ERT, suc...
