Enzyme replacement therapy for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I among patients followed within the MPS Brazil Network
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is a rare lysosomal disorder caused by deficiency of alpha-L-iduronidase. Few clinical trials have assessed the effect of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for this condition. We conducted an exploratory, open-label, non-randomized, multicenter cohort study of patients with MPS I. Data were collected from questionnaires completed by attending physicians at th...
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 کاملA Humoral Immune Response Alters the Distribution of Enzyme Replacement Therapy in Murine Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I
Antibodies against recombinant proteins can significantly reduce their effectiveness in unanticipated ways. We evaluated the humoral response of mice with the lysosomal storage disease mucopolysaccharidosis type I treated with weekly intravenous recombinant human alpha-l-iduronidase (rhIDU). Unlike patients, the majority of whom develop antibodies to recombinant human alpha-l-iduronidase, only ...
متن کاملIntrathecal enzyme replacement therapy in a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis type I and symptomatic spinal cord compression.
In mucopolysaccharidosis I, deficiency of alpha-L-iduronidase can cause spinal cord compression (SCC) due to storage of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) within the cervical meninges. As intravenous enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is not likely to provide enzyme across the blood-brain barrier, standard treatment for this complication is usually surgical, which has a high morbidity and mortality risk. ...
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...
