Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is caused by deficiency of α-l-iduronidase (IDUA), a lysosomal enzyme involved in the breakdown and recycling of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although enzyme replacement therapy is available, the efficacy of the treatment for neuropathic manifestations is limited. To facilitate drug discovery and model disease pathophysiology, we generated neural stem cells (NSCs) from MPS I...
