LC–MS/MS analysis of plasma lyso-Gb3 in Fabry disease

Clin. Chim. Acta 414 , 273-80, (2012)

Background Fabry disease is a complex, multisystemic and clinically heterogeneous disease, with elevated excretion of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3) accumulating in biological fluids caused by deficiency of the enzyme, lys...

A metabolomic study reveals novel plasma lyso-Gb3 analogs as Fabry disease biomarkers.

Curr. Med. Chem. 20(2) , 280-8, (2013)

Fabry disease is an X-linked, multisystemic lysosomal storage disorder due to alpha-galactosidase A deficiency. It is characterized by the accumulation of glycosphingolipids, mainly globotriaosylceramide (Gb(3)), in biological fluids, vascular endothelium, he...

In vivo tumor targeting using a novel intestinal pathogen-based delivery approach.

Cancer Res. 66(14) , 7230-6, (2006)

Efficient methods for tumor targeting are eagerly awaited and must satisfy several challenges: molecular specificity, transport through physiologic barriers, and capacity to withstand extracellular or intracellular degradation and inactivation by the immune s...

Plasma globotriaosylsphingosine as a biomarker of Fabry disease.

Mol. Genet. Metab. 100(3) , 257-61, (2010)

Fabry disease is an X-linked genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) activity. As enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) involving recombinant GLAs has been introduced for this disease, a useful biomarker for diagnosis and monitoring ...

Quantification of the Fabry marker lysoGb3 in human plasma by tandem mass spectrometry.

J. Chromatogr. B. Analyt. Technol. Biomed. Life Sci. 883-884 , 128-35, (2012)

Morbus Fabry is a hereditary metabolic disorder with low prevalence and late clinical manifestation. A defect in the α-galactosidase gene leads to lysosomal accumulation of the glycolipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb3). Gb3 may be used for monitoring of enzyme r...

Induction of cytokines by toxins that have an identical RNA N-glycosidase activity: Shiga toxin, ricin, and modeccin.

Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1671(1-3) , 44-50, (2004)

Shiga toxin (Stx) has an A1-B5 subunit structure, and the A subunit is an RNA N-glycosidase that inhibits cellular protein synthesis. We previously reported that in Caco-2 cells Stx induced cytokines and that the RNA N-glycosidase activity was essential for t...

Binding ofSilurus asotuslectin to Gb3 on Raji cells causes disappearance of membrane-bound form of HSP70

Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1790(2) , 101-9, (2009)

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are divided into stress-inducible and constitutive types. Generally, HSP70 (stress inducible) and HSC70 (constitutive) are representative of their types, respectively. From the results of immunocytochemical analysis, both HSP70 and ...

Tissue and plasma globotriaosylsphingosine could be a biomarker for assessing enzyme replacement therapy for Fabry disease.

Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 399(4) , 716-20, (2010)

Fabry disease is a genetic disease caused by a deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A (GLA), which leads to systemic accumulation of glycolipids, predominantly globotriaosylceramide (Gb3). With the introduction and spread of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with...

Synthesis and properties of a mitochondrial peripheral benzodiazepine receptor conjugate.

ChemMedChem 3(11) , 1687-95, (2008)

Peripheral benzodiazepine receptors are potential targets for cancer therapeutics through the use of specific ligands such as the pro-apoptotic benzodiazepine RO5-4864. However, the poor water solubility of this compound has been a limitation to its applicati...
