Enzyme replacement therapy stabilized white matter lesion progression in Fabry disease.
BACKGROUND The central nervous system manifestations in Fabry disease (FD) include progressive white matter lesions (WMLs) and stroke. Due to progressive microvascular involvement, men and women with FD over 35 years of age develop WMLs. Moreover, the prevalence of stroke has been estimated to be 12 times higher in FD compared with the general population. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is ava...

BACKGROUND Anderson-Fabry disease is an X-linked defect of glycosphingolipid metabolism. Progressive renal insufficiency is a major source of morbidity, additional complications result from cardio- and cerebro-vascular involvement. Survival is reduced among affected males and symptomatic female carriers. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of enzyme replacement therapy compare...
متن کاملAnderson-Fabry disease: enzyme replacement therapy.
Sir, Anderson-Fabry disease is a metabolic lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency of the enzyme a-galactosidase A and inherited as an X-linked recessive trait. The progressive accumulation of glycosphingolipids (globotriaosylceramide, GB3) in blood, vessels and cells from several organs and tissues causes significant multi-systemic damage in homozygous males and in carrier females. Fo...

متن کاملEnzyme replacement therapy in Fabry disease: a randomized controlled trial.
CONTEXT Fabry disease is a metabolic disorder without a specific treatment, caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (alpha-gal A). Most patients experience debilitating neuropathic pain and premature mortality because of renal failure, cardiovascular disease, or cerebrovascular disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous alpha-gal A for F...
