Enzyme 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...
متن کاملstrategies in enzyme replacement therapy of lysosomal storage disorders
lysosomal storage diseases (lsds) result from a genetic defect in synthesis and cellular transport of lysosomal enzyme to the lysosomes. lsds are progressive and may present at any age affecting multiple tissues and organ systems. they comprise a diverse group of over 40 clinically distinct inherited disorders. as a group they occur in approximately 1 in 5000 to 8000 births in the western socie...
متن کاملMolecular Therapy for Lysosomal Storage Diseases
Lysosomes are organella involving the catabolism of biomolecules extracellularly and intra‐ cellularly incorporated, which contain more than 60 distinct acidic hydrolases (lysosomal enzymes) and their co-factors. Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are caused by germ-line gene mutations encoding lysosomal enzymes, their activator proteins, integral membrane proteins, cholesterol transporters and ...
متن کاملSpecific Treatment for Lysosomal Storage Disorders: Enzyme Replacement Therapy, Bone Marrow Transplant and Others
Received December 15, 2003 Abstract In this article, we review specific therapies that tackle the basic biochemical defects of lysosomal storage diseases. These include bone marrow transplantation, substrate deprivation therapy, enzyme replacement therapy and enzyme enhancement therapy. We particularly update the progress of development of enzyme replacement therapy, which plays a major role in...
متن کاملEnzyme replacement therapy for lysosomal diseases: lessons from 20 years of experience and remaining challenges.
In 1964, Christian de Duve first suggested that enzyme replacement might prove therapeutic for lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs). Early efforts identified the major obstacles, including the inability to produce large quantities of the normal enzymes, the lack of animal models for proof-of-concept studies, and the potentially harmful immune responses to the "foreign" normal enzymes. Subsequently...
