Signatures of Altered Gene Expression in Dorsal Root Ganglia of a Fabry Disease Mouse Model

Abstract excerpt

Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder with involvement of the nervous system. Accumulation of glycosphingolipids within peripheral nerves and/or dorsal root ganglia results in pain due to small-fiber neuropathy, which affects the majority of patients already in early childhood. The α-galactosidase A deficient mouse proved to be an adequate model for Fabry disease, as it shares many symptoms...
