The skin biopsy will be carried out for patients with a diagnosis of Niemann Pick. The biopsy is performed by the physician by means of punch biopsy (diameter 2-3 mm) under local anesthesia, preferably on the forearm (alternatively: thigh). The biopsy is immediately transferred to sterile cell culture medium and sent by center representative for the quickest possible processing to CENTOGENE's laboratory located in Germany or to professional collaborators being part of the project.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for the Development of Novel Drug Therapies for Hepatic and Neurological Morquio Disease

The aim of this study is to generate patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells and then differentiate them into chondrocytes to study the accumulation of keratin sulfate (KS) and chondroitin-6-sulfate (C6S), and possible mechanism to reduce the accumulated substances and modulate the defective enzyme

European Alpha-Mannosidosis Participant

European Alpha-Mannosidosis Participant: An International, Multicenter, Epidemiological Protocol

Number of identified Alpha-Mannosidosis patients, showing a mutation/pathogenic variant in the MAN2B1-Gene, within a cohort of 1000 suspected cases using respective patient's dry-blood sample for confirmatory genetic testing (NGS-based sequencing of MAN2B1-gene)

Alpha-Mannosidosis-positive samples will be validated for the identification of potential biomarkers (based on MS/MS-Tandem spectroscopy) and compared with the merged control samples in order establish a disease-specific biomarker.

Patients with Mannosidosis disease or high-grade suspicion for Mannosidosis disease

For the development of the new biomarkers using the technique of Mass-spectrometry 2,7 ml EDTA blood or a dry blood spot filter card are taken. To proof the correct Mannosidosis diagnosis in those patients where up to the en-rollment in the study no genetic testing has been done, sequencing of Manno-sidosis disease will be done. The analyses will be done at the Centogene AG Am Strande 7 18055 Rostock Germany

Biomarker for Mannosidosis Disease - An International, Multicenter, Epidemiological Protocol

New methods, like mass-spectrometry give a good chance to characterize specific metabolic alterations in the blood of affected patients that allow diagnosing in the future the disease earlier, with a higher sensitivity and specificity.

the goal of the study to identify and validate a new biochemical marker from the blood of the affected patients helping to benefit other patients by an early diagnose and thereby with an earlier treatment.

For the development of the new biomarkers using the technique of mass-spectometry 10 ml EDTA blood and a dry blood spot filter card are used. To prove the correct Morquio diagnosis in those patients where up to the enrollment in the study no genetic testing has been done, sequencing of Morquio will be done as routine diagnostic sequencing. The analyses will done in the Centogene AG Am Strande 7 18055 Rostock Germany
