alpha galactosidase/비만증

α-Galactosides are non-digestible carbohydrates widely distributed in plants. They are a potential source of energy in our daily food, and their assimilation by microbiota may play a role in obesity. In the intestinal tract, they are degraded by microbial glycosidases, which are often modular

The prognosis of Fabry disease has changed since enzyme-replacement treatment was introduced. Therefore, early diagnosis is instrumental. We describe a family presenting with chronic renal failure and proteinuria in which classic skin and neurological features were absent and the diagnosis of Fabry

Fabry disease, a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder, is caused by deficiency of the enzyme α-galactosidase A. The incidence, ranging from one over 40 000 to one over 11 7000 worldwide is probably underestimated due to its unspecific pattern of presentation. The symptoms, including

Obesity-induced adipose tissue (AT) dysfunction results in a chronic low-grade inflammation that predisposes to the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. During the development of obesity, the AT-resident immune cell profile alters to create a pro-inflammatory state. Very recently,
