Abstract excerpt

We describe the clinical findings, and the molecular and biochemical studies in an Italian family with recurrent hydrops fetalis due to galactosialidosis (GS). GS is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the protective protein/cathepsin A (PPCA). This protein forms a high-mo...
