Case report: The spectrum of SMPD1 pathogenic variants in Hungary

2023-06-06

This article reports the first description of all six diagnosed acid sphingomyelinase deficiency cases in Hungary.

ASMD

SMPD1 expression profile and mutation landscape help decipher genotype-phenotype association and precision diagnosis for acid sphingomyelinase deficiency

2023-03-13

This study is the first to elucidate the effects of SMPD1 mutation on cell types and at the tissue level, which provides new insights into the genotype-phenotype association and can help in the precise diagnosis of Niemann-Pick disease (NPD).

Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency: The clinical spectrum of 2 patients who carry the Q294K mutation and diagnostic challenges

2022-07-19

Two case studies are presented, which illustrate the spectrum of disease in patients with a compound heterozygous Q294K pathogenic variant and the impact of false normal ASM activity results.

ASMD

One-year results of a clinical trial of olipudase alfa enzyme replacement therapy in pediatric patients with acid sphingomyelinase deficiency

2021-08-23

In this study in children with chronic ASMD, olipudase alfa was generally well-tolerated with significant, comprehensive improvements in disease pathology across a range of clinically relevant endpoints.

ASMD

Acid Sphingomyelinase, a Lysosomal and Secretory Phospholipase C, Is Key for Cellular Phospholipid Catabolism

2021-08-20

In this article, the biochemical characteristics of acid sphingomyelinase (ASM), their potential effect on cellular lipid turnover, as well as a potential impact on physiological processes are discussed.

ASM

Plasma lyso-sphingomyelin levels are positively associated with clinical severity in acid sphingomyelinase deficiency

2021-07-07

These data support investigation of lyso-sphingomyelin (LSM) as a biomarker for ASMD. Future studies are required to determine if LSM levels are predictive of phenotype in pre-symptomatic patients and how such levels correlate in response to treatment.

NIEMANN-PICK

Clinical, biochemical, and genotype-phenotype correlations of 118 patients with Niemann-Pick disease Types A/B

2021-05-05

This study contributes to the understanding of the natural history of NPA/B and assists in the development of efficacious treatments for patients afflicted with this devastating lysosomal storage disorder.

GAUCHER

Interstitial lung disease in lysosomal storage disorders

2021-04-29

Early diagnosis for lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) is crucial to prevent irreversible organ damage. Early initiation of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) can, at least in part, prevent organ failure.

NIEMANN-PICK

Changes in PCSK 9 and apolipoprotein B100 in Niemann-Pick disease after enzyme replacement therapy with olipudase alfa

2021-02-27

In this study, in which Niemann pick patients were included, it was aimed to assess the effect of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) on lipid parameters and inflammatory markers.

ASMD

Oral, dental, and craniofacial features in chronic acid sphingomyelinase deficiency

2020-12-01

Individuals with chronic ASMD have considerable alterations in their oral health, including a higher prevalence of dental abnormalities, caries, periodontal disease, and skeletal changes, in addition to various systemic indications.

ASMD

Biochemical and imaging parameters in acid sphingomyelinase deficiency: Potential utility as biomarkers

2020-05-15

In this review, clinically important endpoints as well as biochemical and imaging markers of ASMD are discussed and potential new biomarkers are identified.
