Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is a rare X-linked inherited metabolic disorder which results in a deficiency or absence of the enzyme α-galactosidase A, leading to the accumulation of glycosphingolipids in various cells and organs including the heart.
Fabry disease (FD), a rare X-linked disease, can be treated with bi-monthly infusion of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) to replace deficient α-galactosidase A (AGAL-A).
Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD) is a rare, X-linked inborn error of glycosphingolipid catabolism caused by a deficient or absent activity of the lysosomal enzyme, α-galactosidase A, resulting in the progressive multisystem lysosomal accumulation of glycosphingolipids, mainly globotriaosylceramide (Gb3).
Fabry's disease is an X-linked disorder of enzyme alpha-galactosidase A which leads to an accumulation of the glycolipids in lysosomes in vessels and organs.
A systematic search of FD screening studies in dialysis patients published from January 1995 until January 2019 was performed to reanalyze the prevalence of GLA mutations in this population after assigning their correct phenotype.
Fabry disease (FD) is a multiorgan X-linked condition characterized by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A, resulting in a progressive intralysosomal deposit of globotriaosylceramide.
Generation of the human induced pluripotent stem cell line (UKWNLi001-A) from skin fibroblasts of a woman with Fabry disease carrying the X-chromosomal heterozygous c.708 G > C (W236C) missense mutation in exon 5 of the alpha-galactosidase-A gene.
Fabry disease (FD) is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the α-galactosidase A (GLA) gene causing deficiency of α-galactosidase A which results in progressive glycosphingolipid accumulation, especially globotriaosylceramide (Gb3), in body liquids and lysosomes.
Phenotypic characteristics of the p.Asn215Ser (p.N215S) GLA mutation in male and female patients with Fabry disease: A multicenter Fabry Registry study.
Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficient activity of α -galactosidase A which leads to progressive intracellular accumulation of globotriaosylceramide in tissues and organs including heart, kidney, vascular endothelium, the nervous system, the eyes and the skin.
Anderson-Fabry disease (FD) is a rare, progressive, multisystem storage disorder caused by the partial or total deficit of the lysosomal enzyme α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A).
Fabry Disease (FD), an X linked lysosomal storage disease due to pathogenic α-galactosidase A (<i>GLA</i>) mutations, results in two major subtypes, the early-onset Type 1 'Classic' and the Type 2 'Later-Onset' phenotypes.
Both the findings of low-activity α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A, GLA) and base deletion in exon 7 of the GLA gene (GLA-E07.1286_*7 del, a newly reported mutation) confirmed that this patient was simultaneously afflicted with Fabry disease.
In addition to symptomatic treatments, disease-specific enzyme replacement therapy with recombinant human alpha-galactosidase A enzyme or chaperone therapy (migalastat) in patients with amenable mutations can improve the disease, including gastrointestinal symptoms, and should be initiated as early as possible after Fabry disease has been confirmed; starting enzyme replacement therapy at as young an age as possible after diagnosis improves long-term clinical outcomes.
Deficiency of human α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) causes Fabry disease (FD), a heritable, X-linked lysosomal storage disorder, characterized by accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3).
Fabry disease (FD) results from X-linked inheritance of a mutation in the GLA gene, encoding for alpha galactosidase A, and is characterized by heterogeneous clinical manifestations.
