High throughput screening for inhibitors of alpha-galactosidase.
Curr. Chem. Genomics 4 , 67-73, (2011) Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in α-galactosidase A (GLA), which catalyzes the hydrolysis of terminal α-galactosyl groups from glycosphingolipids, such as globotriaosylceramide (Gb3). Many of the mutations i... |

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase uncoupling and microvascular dysfunction in the mesentery of mice deficient in α-galactosidase A.
Am. J. Physiol. Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 306(2) , G140-6, (2014) A defect in the gene for the lysosomal enzyme α-galactosidase A (Gla) results in globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) accumulation in Fabry disease and leads to premature death from cardiac and cerebrovascular events. However, gastrointestinal symptoms are often first... |

Long-term effect of antibodies against infused alpha-galactosidase A in Fabry disease on plasma and urinary (lyso)Gb3 reduction and treatment outcome.
PLoS ONE 7(10) , e47805, (2012) Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with alpha-Galactosidase A (aGal A) may cause antibody (AB) formation against aGal A in males with Fabry disease (FD). Anti agalsidase ABs negatively influence globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) reduction. We investigated the impact ... |

Cicer α-galactosidase immobilization onto functionalized graphene nanosheets using response surface method and its applications.
Food Chem. 142 , 430-8, (2014) Cicer α-galactosidase was immobilized onto functionalized graphene with immobilization efficiency of 84% using response surface methodology (Box-Behnken design). The immobilized enzyme had higher thermal stability than the soluble one, attractive for industri... |

Fabry's disease--a comprehensive review on pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment.
J. Pak. Med. Assoc. 64(2) , 189-94, (2014) Fabry's is a progressive, destructive and life threatening disease which reduces significantly life expectancy of the affected individual. It is a genetic disorder of X-linked inheritance caused by deficiency of lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A resultin... |

Angiokeratomas - When is a few too many?
Int. J. STD AIDS 25(5) , 378-9, (2014) Many patients have a few scattered angiokeratoma and we reassure them that this it is normal; however, if they are numerous, Fabry disease should be considered and the family history should be checked. |
