Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> While cardiovascular complications are the most common cause of mortality in Fabry disease, the relationship between globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) accumulation, the hallmark of Fabry cardiomyopathy, and cardiac hypertrophy has not been fully elucidated. <h4>Methods</h4> We developed unbiased stereology protocols to quantify the ultrastrcture of Fabry cardiomyopathy. Endomyocardial biopsies from...
