Lysosomal storage diseases(LSDs;/ˌlaɪsəˈsoʊməl/) are a group of over 70 rare inheritedmetabolic disordersthat result from defects in lysosomal function.[1][2]Lysosomesare sacs of enzymes within cells that digest large molecules and pass the fragments on to other parts of the cell for recycling. This process requires several critical enzymes. If one of these enzymes is defective due to a mutation, the large molecules accumulate within the cell, eventually killing it.[3]
Lysosomal storage disorders are caused by lysosomal dysfunction usually as a consequence of deficiency of a single enzyme required for themetabolismoflipids,glycoproteins(sugar-containing proteins), or so-calledmucopolysaccharides.Individually, lysosomal storage diseases occur with incidences of less than 1:100,000; however, as a group, the incidence is about 1:5,000 – 1:10,000.[4][5]Most of these disorders areautosomal recessivelyinherited such asNiemann–Pick disease, type C,but a few areX-linked recessivelyinherited, such asFabry diseaseandHunter syndrome(MPS II).
The lysosome is commonly referred to as the cell's recycling center because it processes unwanted material into substances that the cell can use. Lysosomes break down this unwanted matter byenzymes,highly specializedproteinsessential for survival. Lysosomal disorders are usually triggered when a particular enzyme exists in too small an amount or is missing altogether. When this happens, substances accumulate in the cell. In other words, when the lysosome does not function normally, excess products destined for breakdown and recycling are stored in the cell.
Like othergenetic disorders,individuals inherit lysosomal storage diseases from their parents. Although each disorder results from different gene mutations that translate into a deficiency in enzyme activity, they all share a common biochemical characteristic – all lysosomal disorders originate from an abnormal accumulation of substances inside the lysosome.
Lysosomal storage diseases affect mostly children and they often die at a young age, many within a few months or years of birth.
Classification
[edit]Standard classification
[edit]The lysosomal storage diseases are generally classified by the nature of the primary stored material involved, and can be broadly broken into the following: (ICD-10codes are provided where available)
- (E75)Lipid storage disorders
- Gangliosidoses(includingTay–Sachs disease(E75.0-E75.1) - they are a subtype of sphingolipidoses
- Sphingolipidosesthat are not gangliosidoses, includingGaucher'sandNiemann–Pick diseases(E75.2-E75.3)
- Leukodystrophies
- (E76.0)Mucopolysaccharidoses,includingHunter syndromeandHurler disease
- (E77)Glycoprotein storage disorders
- (E77.0-E77.1, E75.11)Mucolipidoses;Mucolipidosis IV is a gangliosidosis
Also,glycogen storage disease type II(Pompe disease) is a defect in lysosomal metabolism as well,[6]although it is otherwise classified into E74.0 in ICD-10.Cystinosisis an lysosomal storage disease characterized by the abnormal accumulation of the amino acid cystine.
By type of defect protein
[edit]Alternatively to the protein targets, lysosomal storage diseases may be classified by the type of protein that is deficient and is causing buildup.
Type of defect protein | Disease examples | Deficient protein |
---|---|---|
Lysosomalenzymesprimarily | Tay–Sachs disease,I-cell disease,[7]Sphingolipidoses(e.g.,Krabbe disease,gangliosidosis:Gaucher,Niemann–Pick diseaseandglycolipids:Metachromatic leukodystrophy),Lysosomal acid lipase deficiency | Various |
Posttranslational modificationof enzymes | Multiple sulfatase deficiency | Multiple sulfatases |
Membrane transport proteins | Mucolipidosistype II and IIIA | N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate transferase |
Enzyme protecting proteins | Galactosialidosis | Cathepsin A |
Soluble nonenzymatic proteins | GM2-AP deficiency, variant AB,Niemann–Pick disease, type C2 | GM2-AP,NPC2 |
Transmembrane proteins | SAP deficiency | Sphingolipid activator proteins |
Niemann–Pick disease, type C1 | NPC1 | |
Salla disease | Sialin | |

Signs and symptoms
[edit]The symptoms of lysosomal storage diseases vary depending on the particular disorder and other variables such as the age of onset, and can be mild to severe. They can include developmental delay, movement disorders,seizures,dementia,deafness,and/orblindness.Some people with lysosomal storage diseases haveenlarged liversorspleens,pulmonaryandcardiacproblems, and bones that grow abnormally.[10]
Diagnosis
[edit]The majority of patients are initially screened by enzyme assay, which is the most efficient method to arrive at a definitive diagnosis.[10]In some families where the disease-causing mutations are known, and in certain genetic isolates, mutation analysis may be performed. In addition, after a diagnosis is made by biochemical means, mutation analysis may be performed for certain disorders.[citation needed]
Treatment
[edit]No cures for lysosomal storage diseases are known, and treatment is mostly symptomatic, althoughbone marrow transplantationandenzyme replacement therapy(ERT) have been tried with some success.[11][12]ERT can minimize symptoms and prevent permanent damage to the body.[13]In addition,umbilical cord bloodtransplantation is being performed at specialized centers for a number of these diseases. In addition,substrate reduction therapy,a method used to decrease the production of storage material, is currently being evaluated for some of these diseases. Furthermore,chaperone therapy,a technique used to stabilize the defective enzymes produced by patients, is being examined for certain of these disorders. The experimental technique ofgene therapymay offer cures in the future.[14][15]
Ambroxolhas recently been shown to increase activity of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase, so it may be a useful therapeutic agent for both Gaucher disease andParkinson's disease.[16][17]Ambroxol triggers the secretion oflysosomesfrom cells by inducing a pH-dependentcalcium releasefrom acidic calcium stores.[18]Hence, relieving the cell from accumulating degradation products is a proposed mechanism by which this drug may help.[citation needed]
History
[edit]Tay–Sachs diseasewas the first of these disorders to be described, in 1881, followed byGaucher diseasein 1882. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, de Duve and colleagues, using cell fractionation techniques,cytologicalstudies, and biochemical analyses, identified and characterized the lysosome as a cellular organelle responsible forintracellulardigestion and recycling ofmacromolecules.This was the scientific breakthrough that would lead to the understanding of the physiological basis of the lysosomal storage diseases.Pompe diseasewas the first disease to be identified as an lysosomal storage disease in 1963, with L. Hers reporting the cause as a deficiency of α-glucosidase. Hers also suggested that other diseases, such as themucopolysaccharidosis,might be due to enzyme deficiencies.[citation needed]
