Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is an autosomal disease caused by alpha-L-iduronidase deficiency. This study proposed the use of cationic nanoemulsions as non-viral vectors for a plasmid (pIDUA) containing the gene that codes for alpha-L-iduronidase. Nanoemulsions composed of medium chain
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is an autosomal disease caused by alpha-l-iduronidase (IDUA) deficiency. This study used IDUA knockout mice as a model to evaluate whether parameters such as dose of plasmid and time of treatment could influence the transfection efficiency of complexes formed
Mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPS I) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease due to deficient a-L-iduronidase (IDUA) activity. It results in the accumulation of the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) heparan and dermatan sulfate and leads to several clinical manifestations. This study describes the
BACKGROUND
Bilateral stromal corneal opacifications are a differential diagnostical challenge to identify associated systemic diseases.
METHODS
A 47-year old civil engineer (height 167 cm) with bilateral stromal corneal clouding presented with visual loss for the last 27 years: VA 20/100 OD and
Hematopoietic cell transplantation is a life-saving procedure, but one associated with increasing long-term cardiovascular risk requiring frequent long-term follow-up. This therapy has significantly lengthened survival in mucopolysaccharidosis type IH (Hurler syndrome), a disease with known coronary
The mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) type VII mouse was originally described as the adipose storage deficiency mouse because of its extreme lean phenotype of unknown etiology. Here, we show that adipose storage deficiency and lower leptin levels are common to five different lysosomal storage diseases
