Assessment of cellular cobalamin metabolism in Gaucher disease
(2020) [Artículo de periódico]Background: Gaucher disease (GD) is a lysosomal disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic mutations in the GBA1 gene that encodes beta-glucosidase (GCase), and more rarely, by a deficiency in the GCase activator, saposin C. ... -
A charitable access program for patients with lysosomal storage disorders in underserved communities worldwide
(2021) [Artículo de periódico]Background: Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are rare genetic disorders, with heterogeneous clinical manifesta‑ tions and severity. Treatment options, such as enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), substrate replacement ... -

A new glucocerebrosidase-deficient neuronal cell model provides a tool to probe pathophysiology and therapeutics for Gaucher disease
(2016) [Artículo de periódico]Glucocerebrosidase is a lysosomal hydrolase involved in the breakdown of glucosylceramide. Gaucher disease, a recessive lysosomal storage disorder, is caused by mutations in the gene GBA1. Dysfunctional glucocerebrosidase ... -
