## Abstract Tay‐Sachs disease and normal fetal cerebellar cells were maintained in culture for up to four weeks. Elevated levels of the lysosomal enzymes hexosaminidase B, β‐galactosidase, and acid phosphatase were observed in the Tay‐Sachs cells in long term cultures although elevated lysosomal en

## Abstract A human Tay‐Sachs disease (TSD) fetal‐brain‐cell line is a useful model for the disease since the cells lack hexosaminidase A and accumulate the ganglioside, G~M2~. This brain‐cell line was used to assess the effect of hexosaminidase A treatment on G~M2~ storage material. Entry of place
## Abstract Enzyme‐replacement treatment for metabolic storage disorders has been widely studied using model cell culture systems. This study determines the long‐term fate of human hexosaminidase A supplied to Tay‐Sachs disease brain and lung cells. Hex A retention studies showed that the incorpora
## Abstract ## Introduction: Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in ultra‐orphan Pompe disease generates anti‐rhGAA antibodies, which may interfere with efficacy. ## Methods: rhGAA‐specific T‐cell responses were examined at different time‐points in 6 Hungarian patients treated with rhGAA and compar
## Abstract ## Background Glycogen storage disease type II (GSDII) or Pompe disease is an inherited disease of glycogen metabolism caused by a lack of functional lysosomal acid α‐glucosidase (GAA). Affected individuals store glycogen in lysosomes resulting in fatal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and
