Gene Expression-Related Changes in Morphologies of Organelles and Cellular Component Organization in Mucopolysaccharidoses
9 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are inherited metabolic diseases characterized by accumulation of incompletely degraded glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in lysosomes. Although primary causes of these diseases are mutations in genes coding for enzymes involved in lysosomal GAG degradation, it was demonstrated that storage of these complex carbohydrates provokes a cascade of secondary and tertiary changes affecting cellular...
