Lysosomal storage diseases: mechanisms of enzyme replacement therapy

The Histochemical Journal Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Lysosomal diseases result from deficiency of one of the many enzymes involved in the normal, step-wise breakdown of macromolecules. Studies in vitro have shown that cells from enzyme-deficient patients can be corrected by an exogenous supply of the missing enzyme. This occurs by receptor-mediated endocytosis of normal enzyme added to tissue culture medium and also by direct transfer from normal leukocytes during cell-to-cell contact. Immunohistochemical analysis has revealed that these processes have similar pathways of intracellular transport of the acquired enzymes, which ultimately reach mature lysosomes in the recipient cells. Moreover, recent studies suggest that both mechanisms are important in the therapy of lysosomal storage diseases by bone marrow transplantation. Advances in gene technology are likely to improve the successful treatment of these disorders, by facilitating the large scale production of clinically effective proteins and also by enabling the stable and safe introduction of normal lysosomal genes into cells of affected patients.
