Abstract excerpt
Sialidosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that affects the intralysosomal catabolism of sialylated glycoconjugates and is involved in cellular immune response. Mutations in NEU1, which encodes the sialidase enzyme, result in sialidosis. Sialidosis is characterized by the progressive lysosomal storage of sialylated glycopeptides and oligosaccharides. In this study, we used Sendai virus reprogramming to...
