An updated management approach of Pompe disease patients with high-sustained anti-rhGAA IgG antibody titers: experience with bortezomib-based immunomodulation. Front Immunol. 2024 Mar 8;15:1360369. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1360369. PMID: 38524130; PMCID: PMC10959098.

Pompe disease is an inherited lysosomal disorder caused by an abnormal enzyme that cannot break down glycogen. Patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease often experience high-sustained anti-rhGAA IgG antibody titers (HSAT), which can lower the efficacy of enzyme replacement therapy and lead to health complications.

In this study, researchers explored management approaches for HSAT in patients with Pompe disease. The team compared the disease course of eight patients with infantile-onset Pompe who were treated with the drug bortezomib. Researchers tracked differences in timing, dosage, and outcomes among these patients.

Results suggest that bortezomib should be initiated at the earliest sign of HSAT with a minimum of two consecutive treatment cycles to achieve optimal outcomes. Authors recommend close monitoring of HSAT and early intervention as soon as significantly elevated levels are noted.

Assessing the integrity of auditory sensory memory processing in CLN3 disease (Juvenile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (Batten disease)): an auditory evoked potential study of the duration-evoked mismatch negativity (MMN). J Neurodev Disord. 2024 Jan 6;16(1):3. doi: 10.1186/s11689-023-09515-8. PMID: 38183037; PMCID: PMC10770910.

CLN3 disease, also known as juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis or Batten disease, is a type of lysosomal disorder that affects the nervous system beginning in childhood. Throughout adolescence and early adulthood, patients often experience progressive vision loss, motor dysfunction, and cognitive decline. This combination of symptoms can make it challenging to assess neurocognitive decline, highlighting the need for quantitative measures of brain function.

In this study, researchers assessed auditory sensory memory capabilities in individuals with CLN3 disease as a potential biomarker for neurocognitive decline. The team used a type of assessment called duration-evoked mismatch negativity (MMN)—which does not require participant engagement—to study early auditory processing, discrimination, and sensory memory in 21 individuals with CLN3 disease and 41 neurotypical controls.

Results reveal a decline in auditory sensory memory for duration as CLN3 disease progresses. Authors note that duration-evoked MMN may also serve as a sensitive measure of disease severity in other neurodevelopmental disorders.

Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) disorders are a group of nine rare, inherited, lysosomal storage disorders caused by genetic mutations which produce 11 dysfunctional enzymes that cannot break down glycosaminoglycans (complex sugar molecules with amino groups that are critical components of connective tissues). MPS disorders have many potential new therapies on the horizon. However, historic control data on disease progression and variability are needed to understand the long-term benefits and limitations of these treatments.

In this study, researchers conducted a 10-year prospective observational study of 55 children with multiple types of MPS. The team used several techniques, including annual measurements and mixed effects modeling, to systematically evaluate bone and joint disease over time.

Results show that despite current treatments, patients with MPS I, II, and VI still experience short stature, joint contractures, and elevation in average BMI. Authors note that data from this study could be used to expedite testing of therapies directed to bones and joints, as well as highlight the need for weight management in routine clinical care for patients with MPS.

Gaucher disease type 1 (GD1) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder in which harmful amounts of fatty materials (lipids) accumulate in various cells and tissues in the body. Currently, there is a lack of reliable biomarkers for GD1, which could help predict treatment success or disease progression. In this study, researchers aimed to validate measures of oxidative stress and inflammation as biomarkers for GD1. For three months, the team investigated and compared variation in various blood-based oxidative stress and inflammation biomarkers in participants with GD1. Results show that specific biomarkers are consistently altered in GD1, regardless of therapy status. These findings highlight the need for additional therapies that can target and modulate these biomarkers. Authors note that this information can help guide the selection of candidate biomarkers for future intervention-based studies in patients with GD1.

Silvestroni A, Sokolovskiy A, Tøndel C, Svarstad E, Obrisca B, Ismail G, Holida MD, Mauer M. A novel unbiased method reveals progressive podocyte globotriaosylceramide accumulation and loss with age in females with Fabry disease. Kidney Int.. 2022 Jul;102(1):173-182. doi: 10.1016/j.kint.2022.03.023. Epub 2022 Apr 26. PMID: 35483528; PMCID: PMC9233139.

Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by an abnormal enzyme that cannot break down some of the glycosphingolipids (cell membrane components containing fats with sugar molecules attached). The increase in one of these glycosphingolipids, called globotriasylceramide (GL3), is the hallmark of the disease and associated with cellular injury. The Fabry disease gene is located on the X chromosome. In contrast to males, females have two X chromosomes in their cells, one of which is randomly inactivated. Although female patients can experience serious complications of Fabry disease, most studies focus on male patients in order to avoid confusion resulting from mosaicism caused by X chromosome inactivation. In this study, researchers developed a new, unbiased method for GL3 estimation in podocytes (kidney cells that wrap around capillaries in the kidney filters called glomeruli) independent of mosaicism in female patients with Fabry disease. Researchers used this method to make age-matched comparisons between female and male patients and controls. Results showed that GL3 accumulation in podocytes that carry the gene defect in female patients with Fabry disease increases with age—and to the same levels as podocytes in males, all of which carry this defect. This accumulation is also associated with podocyte loss and leaking protein in the urine, predictors of kidney failure. These studies indicate that Fabry-affected podocytes in female patients do not benefit from the circulating normal enzyme from their normal cells or from normal neighbor podocytes. Authors note that these novel findings help us better understand the mechanisms involved in Fabry disease complications and have important clinical implications.

Quantifying medical manifestations in Hurler syndrome with the infant physical symptom score: associations with long-term physical and adaptive outcomes. Mol Genet Metab. 2022 May;136(1):22-27. doi: 10.1016/j.ymgme.2022.03.003. Epub 2022 Mar 10. PMID: 35304037.

Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) is a group of inherited conditions in which the body is unable to properly break down mucopolysaccharides (long chains of sugar molecules that are found throughout the body). As a result, these sugars build up in cells, blood, and connective tissue, leading to a variety of health problems. A physical symptom score (PSS) has been developed to characterize physical symptoms of MPS in older children. With the onset of newborn screening, there is an increased need to characterize these symptoms in infants and toddlers. In this study, researchers aimed to create a measure to quantify somatic (physical) burden in patients with MPS under 36 months of age. They established the Infant Physical Symptom Score (IPSS) using data from 39 patients with Hurler syndrome (MPS IH) enrolled in a Lysosomal Disease Network (LDN) study. To validate the new scale, researchers compared the IPSS with the PSS. Results show that the IPSS is a useful approach to quantifying the somatic disease burden of MPS IH patients under 36 months of age. Authors note that the IPSS may also provide a predictor of later outcomes, especially adaptive function.

CLN3 disease is an inherited disorder that primarily affects the nervous system. After 4 to 6 years of normal development, children with this condition develop vision impairment, intellectual disability, movement problems, speech difficulties, and seizures, which worsen over time. Researchers seeking to improve diagnostic methods for CLN3 disease used genotype and phenotype data from an ongoing natural history study to develop a hierarchical diagnostic confidence scheme with three major classes: Definite, Probable, or Possible CLN3 disease. An additional level, CLN3 Disease PLUS, includes individuals with CLN3 disease plus an additional disorder that substantially affects the phenotype. They used the scheme to classify individuals and then performed a blinded reclassification to assess the reliability of this scheme. Test-retest reliability showed 96% agreement. Authors conclude that their diagnostic confidence scheme for CLN3 disease appears to be effective and has implications for clinical research in CLN3 and other rare genetic neurodegenerative disorders.

CLN2-associated disease is an inherited, fatal lysosomal storage disorder characterized by progressive brain and retinal deterioration. In this study, researchers evaluated the eyes of 14 patients using the automated segmentation software in optical coherence tomography scans to characterize inner and outer retinal degeneration. Their goal was to identify sensitive, quantitative biomarkers for assessing retinal degeneration in anticipation of future clinical trials. They identified a significant, progressive difference in the thickness of the outer nuclear layers (ONL) of the parafovea, a region in the retina, in patients from 39 to 45 months versus 46 to 52 months. They conclude that parafoveal ONL thickness is a sensitive, early age indicator of CLN2-associated retinal degeneration.
