L-arginine ameliorates defective autophagy in GM2 gangliosidoses by mTOR modulation

2021-05-29

Abstract excerpt

Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff diseases (GM2 gangliosidosis) are autosomal recessive disorders of lysosomal function that cause fatal and progressive neurodegeneration in infants and young children. Impaired hydrolysis catalysed by β-hexosaminidase A (HexA) leads to the accumulation of its specific substrate, GM2 ganglioside, in neuronal lysosomes. Despite the development of a florid storage phenotype, the role of autopha...
