Although most lysosomal storage disorders present in infancy or early childhood with a progressive condition often associated with dysmorphism, considerable genetic heterogeneity exists resulting in a range of illnesses that can include a dramatic neonatal presentation. Whilst some conditions present with a characteristic neonatal phenotype (e.g. Niemann-Pick disease type C), the remainder pres...

lysosomal storage diseases (lsds) result from a genetic defect in synthesis and cellular transport of lysosomal enzyme to the lysosomes. lsds are progressive and may present at any age affecting multiple tissues and organ systems. they comprise a diverse group of over 40 clinically distinct inherited disorders. as a group they occur in approximately 1 in 5000 to 8000 births in the western socie...

Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) are a family of disorders that result from inherited gene mutations that perturb lysosomal homeostasis. LSDs mainly stem from deficiencies in lysosomal enzymes, but also in some non-enzymatic lysosomal proteins, which lead to abnormal storage of macromolecular substrates. Valuable insights into lysosome functions have emerged from research into these diseases. ...

CONTEXT Lysosomal storage disorders represent a group of at least 41 genetically distinct, biochemically related, inherited diseases. Individually, these disorders are considered rare, although high prevalence values have been reported in some populations. These disorders are devastating for individuals and their families and result in considerable use of resources from health care systems; how...
