In mammalian cells, glucosylceramide (GlcCer), the simplest glycosphingolipid, is hydrolyzed by the lysosomal enzyme acid beta-glucosidase (GlcCerase). In the human metabolic disorder Gaucher disease, GlcCerase activity is significantly decreased owing to one of approximately 200 mutations in the GlcCerase gene. The most common therapy for Gaucher disease is enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), in...
Gaucher disease is the most common lysosomal storage disease, and the first lysosomal storage disease for which a specific therapy has been developed. Enzyme replacement therapy, with glucocerebrosidase purified from human placentae, was introduced in 1991. Recombinant human glucocerebrosidase, produced by Chinese hamster ovary cells in tissue culture, became available in 1994 and has replaced ...
OBJECTIVE Gaucher disease in India has been reported only in a few case reports from India. The aim of the study was to assess the response to enzyme replacement therapy in Indian patients with Gaucher disease. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of patients receiving CHO-derived recombinant macrophage-targetted glucocorebrosidase. SETTING Five centers from India with experience in treating lysos...

Intravenous enzyme replacement therapy (Alglucerase; Ceredase; Genzyme Corp, Boston, MA) is an effective and safe treatment for patients with type 1 Gaucher disease. In an attempt to reduce its high cost, a "low-dose high-frequency" protocol (30 U/kg/mo, 3 times a week) was introduced and found to be as effective as the original high-dose protocol (60 U/kg every 2 weeks). Because receiving freq...
BACKGROUND Gaucher disease, an autosomal recessive condition due to deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase, is a multisystemic disease, with variable age of onset, severity and progression. It is classified into subtypes delineated by the absence (type 1) or presence (type 2 and 3) of primary nervous system involvement. The ethnically diverse, largely immigrant population in South Florida h...
Gaucher disease is a common lysosomal storage disease caused by a defect of acid beta-glucosidase (GCase). The optimal in vitro hydrolase activity of GCase requires saposin C, an activator protein that derives from a precursor, prosaposin. To develop additional models of Gaucher disease and to test in vivo effects of saposin deficiencies, mice expressing low levels (4--45% of wild type) of pros...
BACKGROUND Gaucher disease is a lysosomal storage disorder due to deficiency of glucocerebrosidase enzyme. In this study, a case of enzyme-treated woman during her pregnancy was reported. CASE PRESENTATION A 27-year old woman with type I Gaucher disease was managed for pregnancy until delivery. She underwent elective splenectomy at age 26 years and was treated with 19-38 units/kg of imiglucer...
BACKGROUND Gaucher disease is an inborn, autosomal recessive error of the metabolism which belongs to the group of lysosomal storage disorders. OBJECTIVE This work reports on the treatment of Gaucher disease in several members of the same family from the countryside of Maranhão. METHODS This was an observational, retrospective and prospective, descriptive case study about the efficacy of en...
OBJECTIVE Glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) variants that cause Gaucher disease are associated with Parkinson disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). To investigate the role of GBA variants in multiple system atrophy (MSA), we analyzed GBA variants in a large case-control series. METHODS We sequenced coding regions and flanking splice sites of GBA in 969 MSA patients (574 Japanese, 223 ...
