BACKGROUND/AIMS Fabry disease is a treatable cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) characterized by a genetic deficiency of α-galactosidase A. European Renal Best Practice (ERBP) recommends screening for Fabry disease in CKD patients. However, this is based on expert opinion and there are no reports of the prevalence of Fabry disease in stage 1-5 CKD. Hence, we investigated the prevalence of Fa...
Chronic kidney disease is a major complication of Fabry disease. Podocytes accumulate globotriaosylceramide inclusions more than other kidney cell types in Fabry patients. Podocyte injury occurs early in age, and is progressive. Since injured podocytes detach into the urine (podocyturia), we hypothesized that podocyturia would increase in Fabry patients and correlate with clinical severity of F...
Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by an α-galactosidase A deficiency. The progressive accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) results in life-threatening complications, including renal, cardiac, and cerebrovascular diseases. This study investigated the phenotypic and molecular spectra of GLA mutations in Korean patients with Fabry disease using a nationwide...
AIMS A hallmark of Fabry disease is the concomitant development of left-ventricular hypertrophy and arterial intima-media thickening, the pathogenesis of which is thought to be related to the presence of a plasmatic circulating growth-promoting factor. We therefore characterized the plasma of patients with Fabry disease in order to identify this factor. METHODS AND RESULTS Using a classical b...
Background Fabry disease is a rare X-linked disorder characterized by deficiency ofa-galactosidase A, leading to progressive accumulation of glycosphingolipid in various organs, including the heart. Several studies have pointed out the unique pre-contrast T1 value character of classic Fabry cardiomyopathy, which is lower than the normal myocardium. In Taiwan, several recent studies pointed out ...
Fabry disease is an X-linked genetic disorder caused by defects in the α-galactosidase A (GLA) gene, and heterogeneous mutations lead to quantitative and/or qualitative defects in GLA protein in male patients with Fabry disease. Random X-chromosomal inactivation modifies the clinical and biochemical features of female patients with Fabry disease. Functional polymorphisms have been frequently re...
Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD) caused by deficiency of α-galactosidase A (α-gal A), resulting in deposition of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3; also known as ceramide trihexoside) in the vascular endothelium of many organs. A gradual accumulation of Gb3 leads to cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and renal dysfunction. Endothelial cel...
Histopathological evidence of Fabry disease in a female patient with left ventricular noncompaction.
Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the alpha-galactosidase gene. The most frequent cardiac presentation of Fabry disease is cardiomyopathy characterized by left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, usually concentric. Heart disease in affected females tends to be clinically recognized later than in males and cardiac complications are the most frequently ...
of various cells, such as in the vascular endothelium of multiple organs (1). The accumulation of GL-3 in the lysosomes causes lysosomal and cellular dysfunction and this in turn, triggers the cascade of cellular and tissue ischemia and fibrosis. The estimated prevalence of Fabry disease is about one in every 117000 live born males. The classic phenotype of Fabry disease is seen Introduction Fa...
Fabry disease (FD) is a progressive, X-linked inherited disorder of glycosphingolipid metabolism due to deficient or absent lysosomal α-galactosidase A activity. FD is pan-ethnic and the reported annual incidence of 1 in 100,000 may underestimate the true prevalence of the disease. Classically affected hemizygous males, with no residual α-galactosidase A activity may display all the characteris...
