Phenotype prediction for mucopolysaccharidosis type I by in silico analysis
BACKGROUND Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is an autosomal recessive disease due to deficiency of α-L-iduronidase (IDUA), a lysosomal enzyme that degrades glycosaminoglycans (GAG) heparan and dermatan sulfate. To achieve optimal clinical outcomes, early and proper treatment is essential, which requires early diagnosis and phenotype severity prediction. RESULTS To establish a genotype/phe...
متن کاملGenotype–Phenotype Correlations in Iranian Myotonic Dystrophy Type I Patients
Objectives: Myotonic Dystrophy type I (DM1) is a dominantly inherited disorder with a multisystemic pattern affecting skeletal muscle, heart, eye, endocrine and central nervous system. DM1 is associated with the expansion and instability of CTG repeat in the 3chr('39') untranslated region of the myotonic dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK) gene located on chromosome 19q13.3. The aim of this study w...
متن کاملLaronidase for treating mucopolysaccharidosis type I.
Mucopolysaccharidoses are a group of inherited metabolic diseases caused by the absence or deficiency of the lysosomal enzymes that are needed for breaking down glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Over time, GAGs collect in cells, blood and connective tissues, and increased amounts are excreted in the urine. The result is permanent and includes progressive cell damage that affects the individual's appea...
متن کاملHurler syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis type I).
To cite: Grech R, Galvin L, O’Hare A, et al. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2012008148 DESCRIPTION Hurler syndrome is a rare lysosomal storage disorder with a prevalence of 1 in 100 000. It is caused by a defective IDUA gene which codes for α-L iduronidase and has an autosomal recessive inheritance. Enzyme deficiency results in accumulation of der...
متن کاملOpen issues in Mucopolysaccharidosis type I-Hurler
Mucopolysaccharidosis I-Hurler (MPS I-H) is the most severe form of a metabolic genetic disease caused by mutations of IDUA gene encoding the lysosomal α-L-iduronidase enzyme. MPS I-H is a rare, life-threatening disease, evolving in multisystem morbidity including progressive neurological disease, upper airway obstruction, skeletal deformity and cardiomyopathy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cel...
