MPS

A Novel Missense Mutation (c.965C>T, p.Ala322Val) in the GALNS Gene: A Severe MPS IVA Case

2025-02-01

A newly identified c.965C>T (p.Ala322Val) missense mutation in the GALNS gene has been associated with the severe form of Morquio syndrome (MPS IVA); the diagnosis was confirmed in a 3-year-old patient with skeletal abnormalities through whole exome sequencing, and early enzyme replacement therapy has been recommended to slow disease progression.

GAUCHER DISEASE

Machine Learning-Driven Biomarker Discovery for Skeletal Complications in Type 1 Gaucher Disease Patients

2024-08-06

This study aims to identify protein biomarkers for the early detection of skeletal complications in patients with Type 1 Gaucher disease using machine learning. The research identified 18 potential biomarkers, emphasizing that some of these can be measured through blood tests. The goal is to develop new tools for clinical decision support systems using machine learning and systems biology techniques.

POMPE

Genotype, phenotype and treatment outcomes of 17 Malaysian patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease and the identification of 3 novel GAA variants

2023-08-04

This is the first study to analyze the genotype and phenotype of Malaysian infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) patients, and has identified the c.1935C > A p.(D645E) as the most common mutation.

FABRY

Low skeletal muscle mass as an early sign in children with fabry disease

2023-07-21

Low skeletal muscle mass is a common early symptom in children with Fabry disease (FD), suggesting that skeletal muscle is significantly affected in the early stages of FD.

FABRY

A novel double GLA gene mutation of W24R and N419D in a patient with cardiac Fabry disease

2023-06-10

This article reports a rare familial case of inherited cardiac Fabry disease (FD) associated with a novel double mutation in the GLA gene: W24R and N419D.

ASMD

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.

MPS

Clinical characteristics and genotypes of 201 patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II in China: A retrospective, observational study

2023-06-01

This study aimed to characterize the clinical characteristics and genotypes of the largest cohort of Chinese patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II).

FABRY

Population Frequency of Undiagnosed Fabry Disease in the General Population

2023-04-17

This study confirms that Fabry disease is more common than previously recognized and still underdiagnosed especially in women.

MPS

Identifying the genetic causes of phenotypically diagnosed Pakistani mucopolysaccharidoses patients by whole genome sequencing

2023-04-05

The aim of the present study was to identify novel genes and pathogenic variants in families from diverse regions of Pakistan with clinically diagnosed mucopolysaccharidosis type I and mucopolysaccharidosis type II.

ENZIM REPLASMA TERAPISI

Aseptic meningitis in Fabry disease due to a novel GLA variant: an expanded phenotype?

2023-03-29

This paper presents a family in which a novel GLA pathogenic variant was associated with aseptic meningitis in 2 of 5 family members.

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).

CTX

Case report: Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis with a novel mutation in the CYP27A1 gene mimicking behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia

2023-03-07

This report discusses the case of a middle-aged Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (CTX) patient with an unusual phenotype of behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD).
