BACKGROUND
Gangliosidoses occur due to inherited deficiency of human beta-galaktosidase, resulting in the accumulation of glicophyngolipides within the lisosomes. Clinical manifestations of lysosomal storage disorders are remarkably heterogeneous, they can apear at any age and each of them can vary
OBJECTIVE
To determine the clinical features and biochemical basis of the first Japanese patient with the GM2 gangliosidosis AB variant.
METHODS
The clinical manifestations and laboratory findings in the patient were investigated. Cultured fibroblasts from the patient were analyzed by means of
GM1 gangliosidosis is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by galactosidase beta1 (GLB1) gene variants which affect the activity of β-galactosidase (GLB). GLB dysfunction causes abnormalities in the degradation of GM1 and its accumulation in lysosome. This article reports the clinical and genetic
A male Japanese domestic cat with retarded growth in Hokkaido, Japan, showed progressive motor dysfunction, such as ataxia starting at 3 months of age and tremors, visual disorder and seizure after 4 months of age. Finally, the cat died of neurological deterioration at 9 months of age. Approximately
This report concerns a 10-month-old boy, admitted to the Veterans General Hospital-Kaohsiung with generalized tonic convulsion and aspiration pneumonia. He was found to have had developmental regression, progressive hypotonia and hepatosplenomegaly since four months of age. Physical examination
Two cases of gangliosidosis due to aggregates of Gm1 are described. The first patient was a female infant with noticeable retardation in psychomotor development, coarse facies, hepatomegaly, and X-rays showing skeletal anomalies in the large bones, vertebral column, cranium and ribs. She died at the
A case of GM1-gangliosidosis with high activity of hepatic neutral beta-galactosidase is reported. GM1-beta-galactosidase was deficient. Ganglioside GM1 was accumulated in the liver of this patient. Clinically this Japanese girl started convulsive seizures at 5 months of age, had hepatomegaly, and
A child with AB variant GM2 gangliosidosis who had progressive intellectual deterioration and seizures commencing at the age of 12 months is described. Neuronal loss, and neuronal and astrocytic inclusions characteristic of the gangliosidoses, were seen on cortical biopsy. GM2 ganglioside was
GM2-gangliosidosis, AB variant is an extremely rare autosomal recessive inherited disorder caused by mutations in the GM2A gene that encodes GM2 ganglioside activator protein (GM2AP). GM2AP is necessary for solubilisation of GM2 ganglioside in endolysosomes and its presentation to β-hexosaminidase
GM1 Gangliosidosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder due to deficiency of the lysosome enzyme beta-galactosidase, with consequent tissue accumulation of glycolipids, oligosaccharides, and especially GM1 ganglioside. In the present paper we report the clinical and laboratory findings
Late infantile GM1 gangliosidosis is an extremely rare metabolic disorder with clinical features of seizure and progressive motor and mental retardation without facial dysmorphism or visceral organomegaly. We report the CT and MR imaging findings in one infant, which included abnormalities of the
Two young adult siblings were diagnosed as having a deficiency of acid beta-galactosidase activity in leukocytes and fibroblasts. The parents had enzyme levels approximately half of the normal level, consistent with this being the primary enzymatic lesion. Sialidose activities measured with natural
The clinical, biochemical, pathological and neuroradiological findings of a 2-year-old Saudi boy with infantile G(M1) gangliosidosis are reported. The patient had a progressive neurologic deterioration, manifesting with developmental regression, sensorimotor and psychointellectual dysfunction and
An 8-month-old girl, born to consanguineous parents, presented with developmental delay, decreased muscle tone, disinterest in her surroundings, and sleepiness. Tests revealed a marked excretion of thymine with significantly increased uracil excretion in the urine, indicating a pyrimidine catabolic
