Mucopolysaccharidosis type II, an X-linked recessive disorder is the most common lysosomal storage disease detected among Filipinos. This is a case series involving 23 male Filipino patients confirmed to have Hunter syndrome. The clinical and biochemical characteristics were obtained and mutation
Objectives: Enzyme replacement therapy with idursulfase has been shown to improve somatic signs and symptoms of mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II). Idursulfase is available in Japan (since 2007), based on the outcome of clinical trials conducted in the United States, but data from
In the pivotal phase II/III trial of idursulfase administered intravenously to treat mucopolysaccharidosis II, approximately half of the patients developed antibodies to idursulfase. This post-hoc analysis of data from the phase II/III trial and extension study examined the relationship between
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is a rare, X-linked disorder caused by deficient activity of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S). Treatment is available in the form of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant I2S. Clinical outcomes following ≥3 years of ERT with
The direct 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue (DMB) method for quantifying sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) in urine (Clin Chem 1989; 35:374-9) has been adapted to a convenient means for sample collection and transport as a test to identify individuals with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) storage diseases.
Nonesterified dolichols have been measured in the urinary sediment of 20 patients with the late infantile and juvenile forms of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (Batten disease), in 15 patients with other storage and neurodegenerative disorders and in 10 control subjects. Dolichols were measured by a
